I bought a pair of BL5’s which turned out to be faulty; one speaker did not work at all. Got it fixed by an expensive chassis replacement. But now, when both speaker are ”working”, I experience that the other speaker (the one that worked from the beginning), produces much lower sound levels than the one with replaced chassis. It’s like there is not the same amount of power, especially in the treble and midrange area. All drivers seem to work, but just to a lower level. I have performed room adapation on both speakers, but no improvement in terms of equal sound levels.
The strange thing is; as I have a Lyngdorf tdai with integrated RoomPerfect correction, and after performing and activation of that, both speakers play at the same sound levels (sounds good!). I guess the Lyngdorf somehow compensate the lack of power in the potentially faulty speaker. When deactivating RoomPerfect the issue remains. I’ve switched the cables between the speakers to ensure that it’s not the Lyngdorf that causes the problem, but the same issue occurs, i.e. the same speaker plays at a lower volume, so it should not be caused by the Lyngdorf.
Anyone experienced this? What can be wrong? How to fix?
Thank you!
