phonetics Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 (edited) Hi guys, when i'm playing some tunes on my decks, occasionally my RH speaker and RH earphone will stop working, or go really quiet. The problem seems to become aparent when I crank it some on the volume/bass etc and I have a tune on the left-hand deck...has only just started occuring. was wondering if anyone knew what might be causing this problem? all my equipment is less than 3 months old and is quality stuff...apart from the mixer, its a Numark 950USB. Thanks for any help. Tom. Edited June 10, 2008 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nato Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Tone arm connection to the cartridge. Unscrew it, blow on it a bit, screw it in, wiggle it about a bit, you should be able to fix the connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phonetics Posted June 10, 2008 Author Share Posted June 10, 2008 Cheers bud, I'll try that, hopefully should rectify any issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj-control Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Sounds like the volume control or one of the fader's has had it, the volume controls on numarks are famous for producing the symtom you described (as you turn volume up it dies on one channel). prob cost you bout $250 to get it fixed, there is a numark specialist on crummer ave in grey lynn.

phonetics Posted June 10, 2008 Author Share Posted June 10, 2008 Thanks for that, it hasn't done it again today so I'll keep an eye out for it happening again. If it persists dispite the tone-arm connection remidy mentioned above I'll be more certain its the mixer, but so far so good. If it turns out to be the mixer (had it since Xmas) I'll buy a new one - and it certainly won't be a Numark mixer?!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phonetics Posted June 10, 2008 Author Share Posted June 10, 2008 Oh, actually I just remembered, the last couple of times it happened I powered-off the mixer and stereo system and that made the problem go away...albiet temporarily... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phonetics Posted July 3, 2008 Author Share Posted July 3, 2008 Issue fixed. Bought a new mixer. Would much rather discuss retro video games, anyone ever own a Master System II, man that ruled. I paid about the same you'd pay for a PS2 (back in the day like) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
