I Only Get Sound From My Subwoofer Even When I Do The 'test Tone'
I've tried adjusting the "CH Levels" on each speaker, put them right up to 10db, but still no sound except from the subwoofer, even when I do the "Test tone" only the subwoofer gives me a test tone, I've disconnected and reconnected my speaker cables and still no luck
