Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater EP125 Problem ?

Hi All,
I have the EP125, have owned for about 2 months.
When watching movies at certain points where the soundtrack level increases, it makes a loud vibrating noise like the speaker has blown. The level is set at about 5 to 12.
Is the answer just to turn it down a bit.
Thanks for you help,
Neil

Interesting? I think 5 minutes before twelve should be more than fine. I have my EP350 at 12:05....What receiver are you using? Could it be the level on the receiver has gotten cranked up for the Sub channel? I think mine is like -4db when I watch movies, and it rocks the room...

Give Axiom a call. THey'll be able to help you faster and more effectively than we will.

Good luck!

hI,

i have a Yamaha RX-V550.
The level is set to 0DB. I have M50,s up front are are set at large.
Thanks,
Neil

I agree with Ken, I think they could give you prompt help with this problem, who knows maybe they'll even upgrade you to a EP500 or 600 or free NOT

Before you call, just try and tighten everything up a tad.

Good point, I wonder if he has a bad connection issue, or possibly the pet dog has been knawing on the LFE cable that is if you have a pet dog

Or based on his name, maybe he has a pet fox....

Do you have anything setting on the sub? I had a framed photo setting on mine and I kept hearing a simular sound. Then I realized it was the photo dancing to the beat.

OT: I can relate, the other night, about every 5 seconds my wife and I kept hearing a strange vibration sound. It appeared to be coming from the kitchen area. But when we walked around the kitchen, the sound kept moving in the opposite direction we walked. I thought maybe it was the sump pump (for those who know what those are), so I went downstairs, no go, from the basement the sound appeared to be above me in the kitchen. Back to the kitchen, and I would walk towards the sound then it would be behind me again, I would walk to the left, and it would eventually be behind me again. So taking Alan's advice on how to position a Sub, I got on all fours, luckily the wife didn't have a camera, and crawled around the floor, as the sound approached me, I looked up, I felt so foolish, it was our 4 month old's little bouncy seat, that has a built in vibration to get your kid to sleep. We laughed for an hour, we hadn't had a good laugh like that in years...

Anyway, Bray has a good idea, could it be something totally differant then the sub? Possibly a picture nearby, or a heating vent on the floor.

Has anything changed in your environment since it DIDN't make this noise?

Thanks Guys,
I will try all those things tomorrow. There is nothing sat on it though. Have had it in two different locations and am still getting the same noise. Occurs in Master and Commander in the first battle scene.
Thanks again,
Neil
