I don't know exactly where this belongs.

Recently, I had trouble with my laptop. Youtube videos will play fine, but then spontaneously freeze after two seconds, and all sound will not work. I thought it was a sound card problem, and that is yet to be fixed.

However, I tried switching speakers. I got new JBL Creature II speakers for christmas, with this huge subwoofer. (Well, for a LAPTOP PC, yes.) But it was not working, and only the small satellites would work. I tried to check all connections, and even almost returned the speaker!

But the reason was, in the beginning, I pushed all the dials, Bass And Treble on the subwoofer to the + side. I thought this would give a huge sound, but it actually killed it all. I had to move it to the - side, and it is fixed!

This thing blasts a TON of air. Papers on my desk actually move with this thing. IT's like one of those AirZooka's. It makes a nasty farting noise too, sometimes when it's too high.

Bass=those really low noises
Treble=those really high noises


What were you thinking when you turned them both to max???

I looked up the speakers you were talking about, and it's rated at 40 Watts. Are you putting your sub-woofer next to papers on your desk or something?

I have a sub woofer on one of my computers. It actually gets annoying with the thump thump when you're trying to type...let alone move your mouse steadily


Snl, you have a lot of things you need to work out

You're supposed to put the subwoofer on the floor

When you do that, the vibrations transfer better, and you get the epic floor and/or house shaking that people have come to expect from a good 'woofer.
