20 Most Recent Wharfedale Modus One-Six Speaker Questions & Answers

The tweeters are probably blown, i had the same problem.
You can test this by placing the cable on the dismanteled crossover at the back of the speaker. colour blue/yellow.
No high volume please.

If the tweeter is blown it can be dismanteld with the aid of a screwdriver, horizontally.
Place it between the tweeterbowl and the ring which has the mark wharfedale on it. The tweeter comes loose. On second hand sites you can buy little speakers, like modus one or two's with the same tweeters for a good price and put them on your larger speakers.

This how i repaired 2 of my 4 modus eights.

Yes, you can bring it to electronic repair shop to rewind the coil. or buy it in the electronic shop. if they don't have same brand you can replaced it with other brand same size and same watts of speakers. thanks

yes, but it is attached to circuitry that allows only the high frequecies into it. You can replace the speaker with any 8 ohm tweeter without any difficulty, but if there is a capacitor across or in series with the speaker, make sure you put it on you new speaker the same way.

Dunno how old they are, but I just had an 11-year old pair of woofers re-edged because the foam surround and the adhesive had deteriorated. Upon close inspection the foam surround was noticeably pulled away from the cone in a few spots. Unfortunately, if there is an age-related issue with materials beneath the surface that you can't see, you'd have to pull the driver to check it out.

It wasn't until I turned my bass up loud that anything sounded wrong, which precipitated looking for the culprit (quickly found).

Hi. If you have an digital multimeter to hand you could always drop the drive unit (the metalwork with the paper cone) out from the enclosure and make sure the resistance of the voice coil is between 4-16 ohms. If there is no reading then the voice coil could be open circuit and the whole drive unit will need to be replaced. If the others rattle check the mounting screws are not slackened off. Especially if you have been driving them hard!

You may want to check ebay, they sometimes have drivers for sale. Additionally, I would contact IAG (International Audio Group). They are the distributor for Wharfedale here in the states and may be able to help you. I also have the modus one-sixes, modus-two's, and modus center and was albe to get replacement parts from IAG, never needed a driver though. How did you blow it anyhow, these speakers can take a beating, are you using a quality amp? Underpowering the speakers and trying to drive them loudly = demise for your speakers.

Ciao Antonio, per prima cosa scollega il segnale audio che entra nel subwoofer, verifica che abbia il volume a zero, se il rumore continua, ha problemi di rumore dall'alimentatore, Se il rumore scompare, sostituire il cavo audio che fornisce il segnale al subwoofer Hola Antonio, primero desconecte la se?al de audio que ingresa al Subwoofer, verifique que tenga el volumen en cero, si el ruido continua, tiene problemas de ruido por la fuente de alimentaci?n, Si el ruido desaparece, reemplace el cable de audio que le entrega se?al al subwoofer
