Hey guys, i need a bit of help.
My Edifier R501 MK2 is sorta acting up.

At first, my front-right and behind-left wasn't working so i tried fiddling around with the wires (disconnecting and reconnecting). Now that those two are working, the center speaker aren't working and the sub isn't giving out any bass. The sub still has the red LED on and toyed around with the controls to no avail. Help?

Oxidized plugs I think, you can try clean the plugs by wiping it with WD-40 or contact cleaner.
By the way, how do you connect your speakers?

You mean the 3.5 mm plugs are oxidized or the red and black wires one? rclxub.gif
I connect the speakers to my Asus Xonar DX bro smile.gif

All the plugs  laugh.gif  nod.gif

Normally this case can verify again by twisting the plugs or shake gently it will it produce cracking sound or the sound will comes back alive.

followed your advice, some of my other speakers worked, but nothing for center T.T
twisting it around actually did help but no sound for the center speaker. kinda feels like there's no power flowing. used wd-40 for all plugs

New Update!
All speakers are up and running but the bass got noticeably weaker though shocking.gif rclxub.gif
Played around with setting on Asus Audio Center (as i am using the Xonar DX) and still nothing that can help bass much

Could be broken grounding connections, which would reduce the bass. (such as internal broken wire problem). Also make sure the plugs are properly plugged in (twist around and see if there are interruptions and changes). And I would recommend using contact cleaner instead of WD40 to clean the plugs and sockets... hmm.gif

Can find those hand trolleys at places like AEON, Carrefour and Tesco. Costs way less RM100 only (the one I've had costs me only RM45 but that was quite some time ago, in terms of years)... icon_rolleyes.gif
