I have a JVC R-x60 that i have 2 Sony 8 ohm tower speakers hooked up to but my left speaker is way louder than my right one. my balance is set at equal for both speakers and my wire going to each speaker is the same length, give or take a few inches. im clueless. any ideas?
I assume each tower has more than one woofer / tweeter. Possibly a wire to a woofer is loose. Listen to each woofer and tweeter to see if each one is working. I have no experience with your receiver but many have multiple ways to adjust sound. Check all your wires too. Good luck. Length of speaker wire is not your problem.
Hard to say. It could be an issue with the speakers or the amp or possibly with a source device (if using, for example, a DVD player). You can maybe isolate the problem by trying a couple of things. First, select the FM tuner section as your source and tune in a strong station. Is the sound still uneven? If not the amp and speakers are OK and the problem may be with your source device. If still unequal check the wiring between the speakers and the JVC to be sure you don't have a connection problem. Then try reversing the wiring so the right speaker is now connected to the left output. Does the signal reverse and the right speaker now sound louder? If so the fault isn't in the speaker it's something to do with the JVC R-x60. If not the speaker may be faulty. Good luck.
