I just received a bi-powered Rokit 8 that was refurbished in the mail and I'm not sure If the monitor is busted, or if I'm just doing something horribly wrong. After trying to hook it up to my mbox, I received nothing but a low sounding treble like version of the track I was attempting to play on Fruity Loops. So then I tried routing it through my Line 6 spyder amp to play guitar...It worked beautifully, full sound and sub etc...but after a few short minutes of play, The speaker went back to the low fuzzy sound about 1/4 of the volume it was at. So I tried everything from testing the voltage on the fuses, (they were fine) moving the monitor into different rooms, changing outlets, and directly connecting my mic/guitar directly into the monitor itself. After figuring it was probably broken, I came home the following day and tried again with the Line 6...it worked beautifully for a few minutes again...then back to fuzzy treble. Ive tried multiple TRS cables, (so it's not faulty wiring), any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
 
Arh seems like something I really can relate to. I'm also kind of new in this area but I have to monitor where only one of them acts like yours. Now it's completely busted. Have you also tried to unplug and reinsert(not fucking) the cable to the mbox while the monitor is on?
But if it doesn't work, return it I guess. When you are kinda low on knowledge it's better to be safe. Proove me wrong :)
 
Man, I am so glad I haven't had problems like you guys are having. I'd be pulling my hair out.

Good luck to both of you. Hope you get it figured out.
 
I've never experienced anything like that with my R6's so I'm guessing it's a faulty speaker.

And I'm using TRS also as opposed to XLR.
 
Yep! Return 'em! No sense putting up with that.
Good luck.
 
I have RP8s and this is exactly how they are meant to sound...

















only joking, send it back its busted ;)
 
Could it possibly be a dirty pot for the volume or treble boost/cut knob?........
 
Give it some good fast twisting! Then turn your monitors knobs back n forth. :)
