    Spanish music constantly playing through speakers at a very low volume, constantly.

    I am having a very, very strange problem. At all times, regardless if anything is on or off, my speakers play Spanish music at a very low volume. You can barely hear it sometimes, and sometimes its so quiet you have to put your head to the towers directly to detect it. I believe there is a...

    I looked on the center channel since you mentioned that several brands could be abbreviated as AR. It is an Acoustic Research speaker. Are they really that good? What would you want for the ones you said you have collecting dust?

    Also, how tricky is redoing the cloth grills for the speakers? I'm going to get at that on Sunday. I have a bit of background with fabric working, re doing headliners and carpeting sub enclosures for cars. Just never anything this visible and I want it to be perfect.

By cross over are you talking about low pass and high pass filters? That's what I'm used to adjusting in hertz on car audio. If that's what you mean the sub does have...

    Thanks for the replies. If I unplug the sub there is a very distinct drop in bass. Almost all lows go away. Which I thought was weird with two 15's.
