three Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Hi all, anybody have any ideas about this? I was playing my Spector (US active with Agi OBP3) when it died quickly. I replaced the single 9v battery and after about 2-3 minutes, the sound faded, spluttered and died again. I took out the (new Duracell Industrial) battery and it was very hot - it had only been in the bass a few minutes. Anybody know what might be causing this? The bass doesn't have a passive option so it's useless without the active in full working order. Any ideas are very welcome - especially those that might suggest a fix!

ahpook Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 That's annoying ! Sounds like there's a short somewhere, causing the battery to discharge through itself (hence the heating). I'd have a look at the clip for the battery and the wiring from there to the active circuit to see if there's anything frayed or loose.

three Posted December 28, 2018 Author Share Posted December 28, 2018 Thanks, much appreciated - I was thinking a short. I'll inspect quickly now but out at a gig tonight. I'll investigate more tomorrow and get back! Cheers, Loz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
