I've done some investigating, wiped the connectors down and poked around and it actually is the speaker bit. The capacitor was kind of dangling off when I opened it, and I repositioned it and I consider I've got it stuck in there pretty good. I've got sound,but the sound is so unbelievably low I can't hear anything even with headphones on. When I place my finger under where the volume knob is it springs to life, but it's not really controlled sound, and it seems to travel between fuzz and the correct pitch from the oscillator.
Anyway,the person I bought it from had never used the kit, but since I bought the thing moment hand, and it's not like I can just return the speaker. I went ahead and ordered myself a current one,but it seems silly to hang on to a dead speaker. Since I am absent at grad school I don't occupy my tools or my engineering friends to wait on me hack it. If I sent it back to littleBits, could they reuse it or refurbish (to brighten, freshen or polish; to restore or improve) it? I don't need compensation, or I just want someone to get some fun out of it! Or maybe someone can teach me some rapid/fast tricks to fix it? Then I'd just occupy two speakers,which wouldn't be that bad. [/images/emoji/apple/smile.png?v=0]
Thanks! I'm so excited to play with my kit! Posts: 1Participants: 1Read full topic
