And what is your country? Over here we use 230V 50Hz. As for online stores, have you checked RS Components, element14/Farnell/Newark, Mouser, Digikey and Parts Express? You could also try searching in eBay, Alibaba/Aliexpress and DHGate as well... wink.gif

The problem very sounds familiar, in fact for the bass problem same as vinothrao84's unit (same Altec Lansing ADA885) that I've fixed. Right now have repair work overload (including another Altec Lansing ADA885 belonging to ktek), thus you may have to wait for a while (until I'm quite free)... sweat.gif

Could be faulty potentiometer (e.g. the wiper has lifted off the track) and/or dirty potentiometers there. Try using contact cleaner and spray directly into those potentiometers (you may have to dis-assemble the satellite speaker where the controls are located). Do update us on the results... hmm.gif

The reason for the fuse to keep blowing is because some component inside has failed and became a short circuit. Have repaired one of those Altec Lansing ADA-885 before (some time ago, owner was vinothrao84), and also have another one currently in repair (belonging to ktek). As for repairs, can look me up although currently not that free (repair overload)... hmm.gif

My VS 4121 right speaker is not working anymore. I would like to resolder the 9-pin Male cable that connects the right speaker to the woofer.
I am pretty sure the cable is broken right where it connects to the woofer.
Does anyone has or know the link to the Wiring diagram or cable color for the 9-pin Male Socket? notworthy.gif notworthy.gif notworthy.gif

hi, my VS4121 right speaker no sound but can switch on with the blue light on. I can also adjust the volume for the left speaker on it. however, sometimes there's a kind of short bass sound coming from woofer i think. Wonder what's the problem and where can i repair it?

well for some reason, the speakers started working fine after a while,
so im still using them...


for your case...
u can check to see if its due to the connector having problem / broken...
or maybe the cable damaged...
if you can isolate the issue to specific item, then easier for someone here to guide you to fix it...

for those who own a broken 2.1 altec lansing setups I kindly suggest getting it repair by swamping the internal amplifier board with a cheap ebay 2.1 amp kit available. I did mine and the AL 321 sounds better than ever before...but the speakers driver must be a in good condition lah...my suggestion
