MatthewKeys Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Hey Well basically, I bought a new tweeter because my old one was having little or no effect on the high end of my cabinet apart from a bit of extra hiss. I just plugged my new tweeter in (official ampeg tweeter) and I am having exactly the same problem, little or no effect... Anybody know what's going on? Could I fix it at home? How much would it cost to get repaired if not? This is really bugging me! Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's ok then I think there's an attenuator control on the back of the 410HLF? I'd take a look at the wiring going to and from the attenuator assembly. If that looks intact then the attenuator itself would be my prime suspect at that point. HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes i've taken the back on and made sure everything is connected properly, everything looks as it should, I really don't know what to do! I don't want to buy any more replacement parts unless I know that is for sure what is wrong with my amp. Do you know anyone in the Kent Area who could actually diagnose what is wrong with it for me?
