devil_bassman Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Hi, I recently bought an orange terror bass 500w and when i plugged my trace cab into it it didn't work and now its stopped working all together. I have taken some pictures of all the connections, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeydee Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Check all the wiring carefully by eye and if you have a meter check each speaker measure approximately what its stated impedance is; usually 4, 8 or 16 ohms. I can see a join on a red and a blue in the pictures - Make sure it is secure, ideally soldered or if not then using connector block. Can you tell if the speakers are wired in parallel or series? If in series, then maybe one is dead and therefore neither will work. You can check each speaker independently by connecting a 9v pp3 battery to the speaker terminal very briefly and you should hear a pop as the speaker moves in or out in response to the voltage of the battery. If you get a pop then the speaker cone is sort of working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
