Creative Inspire 6.1 6600 Controller

Hey there, i wasnt sure where to ask this question, so i do appologise in advance.
Recently, my speakers start encountering problems, and finally the sound completely stopped working - and this was due to the volume controller (I own the Creative Inpsire 6.1 6600).
As i know i wont get warranty, nor do i intend to try and recieve it as i've had these speakers for a fair long time and dont have any receipts etc. I was just wondering if anyone on the forums have the remote spare, or do you have any tips and tricks that might help? Ive opened it and made sure it was cliking and the swtich was hiting the and connecting properly inside.
I have searched online numerous times for second hand controllers, but have had no luck.
Thank you very much.
Todd

I'm also having the exact same problem, and so is a friend who has the same speaker/soundcard setup. Any help is appreciated!

    Hello Creative Staff,
    I need help with a very delicate situation.
    I have bought the Creative Inspire 6.1 6600 from my dad in
    Europe and i guess that problem just starts off then. It runs with 230V ~ 50Hz 39mA and the AC adaptor is 3.5V ~5A 67.5VA
    I'm not a technician, but i know enough that i need to get a power tramsformer;
    but the problem is what kind of trnsformer do i need in order to make things work
    right the first time?
    can anyone help me with this one?
    P.S I also bought the USB Sound Blaster Live! 24 bit. just to let you guys know.

    thm_05,
    If you need a transformer to use a power supply from a different country, you'd really need to speak to an electrical store in your area to see if they can supply you with one. We don't make or supply any of these.

  • Creative Inspire 6.1 6600 Speakers

    I have Creative Inspire 6.1 6600 speakers. The "Wired Volume / Base Control with Power Switch and Headphone Jack" is malfunctioning. In fact, when I turn the volume control on, the green LED on top does not illuminate. And because of this bad control, I do not have sound. Can anyone tell me how and where I can replace this control? Your assistance is appreciated. Thanks very much.

  • Creative Inspire 6.1 6600 Sound Problem

    I have a Creative Audigy Audio Processor (WDM) (Audigy 2) and the speakers are Creative Inspire 6.1 6600. The sound goes down when the selector of volumen is between 3 and 4. I need to increase the volume to make it sound again, but it goes down again. What`s going on?

    Does this problem only occur in certain programs? Because I have a similar problem with my sound suddenly dropping without warning. But it only happens when I'm playing music in Windows Media Player. If it does have something to do with the media player then I suspect it could be the "WOW effects plugin." I hope this helps, or at least narrows down your problem.

  • Please Help! Creative Inspire 6.1 6600

    i've had this speaker system for quite some time, but now my subwoofer doesn't work. i've done the noise/channel test through thx and creative and they both give me the same results. all 6 speakers work, but the subwoofer doesn't. so i attempted in the callibration. all went good until the bass/subwoofer section, the sound went jumpy and squeled so loudly. i've checked all wires, but still no results. still doesn't work.
    if this could relate to the sound card, well the current sound card i'm using is SB Audigy 2 ZS.
    thx for ur help

    fungry
    Just a piece of advice.. Never buy creative speakers. I have 2 friends who had their creative speakers damaged in month. And my 6.1 6600 damaged in 6 months time, (I didn't use it for 3 months in the middle). In my case, the speakers start to produce weird sound, and sometimes there's signal going through, sometimes there no signal.
    Creative produce good sound cards, but not speakers.. although I do have a lil problem with the soundcard at the moment for the crackle,pop sound during playback of songs when computer is under high load, but i believed it can be fixed with a new driver/software.
    I would recommend you Logitect speakers.(logitech has strong bass) some people prefer altec lansing because it has has clear/crisp sound but I think that's only higher treble that's all.
    You can have very clear voice on the logitech too just by adjusting the treble level on your audigy2 zs.
    I am now using Logitech z5300e and its heaps stronger than 6.1 6600. I would say 6600 is a failure, there isn't much power.. weak sound..you can't enjoy music or movie with that set of speakers
    Since you have a good soundcard, I would think that you do enjoy good quality music and movie. To achieve that, I think you would need to change your speakers. Go for z5300 or If you just got that extra money, get Logitech Z5500..
    Well, That's just my advice. Good Luck

  • Static Creative Inspire 6.1 6600

    Recently, within the past month and a half to two months, my speakers have started to make a static noise. At first, it was occasional and it would go away after I turned my speakers off over night. However, recently ever since I have moved the static has increased. My cell phone would cause interference with my speakers, but it would never make static noises when my cell phone wasn't going off. However, it started before I moved and it has only increased. Is there anything I can do to stop this static?

    I'm also having the exact same problem, and so is a friend who has the same speaker/soundcard setup. Any help is appreciated!

  • Inspire 6.1 6600 Sound

    Hi,
    Recently i have bought creative inspire 6.1 6600 speaker set....
    I have ASROCK P4i45GV motherboard......And it has built-in sound card....When i connect the speaker set to my PC i am able to connect 4 speakers and Sub woofer too.

    when i keep the bass full and increase the volume, after half stage the sound starts shaking...Meaning i wont be able to hear the complete sound...
    According to me there should not be any problem with the sound even i keep both bass and volume high .But the same is not happening with my inspire 6600......
    So whats the problem?Do you think any problem with the particular set...........
    Moderator plz help me in this regard.
    Thanks In Advance
    Rudra

    6.1 6600 speakers will have every satellites giving out different sounds and reverberation. If you have those all similare, your sound card might not be supporting channel output.
    With my experience with creative, the speaker systems are not suposed to be operated at full volume, at full bass enhan*****t. The reasons are:
    1) The power supply will be one-third more capable than the speaker rating. So, full amplification of the sound signal is not preferable.
    2) Even if the fidility of sound card is excellent with more than 98 dB SNR, the amplifier at the speaker system need not be as good as that at the card (because, it amplifies the signal to much higher a value)
    3) As I have seen with most of the speaker systems (including high end theatres), the bass enhan*****t is fully functional with woofer and subwoofers of more than 100 watt RMS. That too will exhibit chattering after an year or two, at high volumes.

    Whats ur opinion abt 6600 ? Is it worth that much ?
    And once i buy i want to use this speaker set i want to use for both for personal computer and My Television.
    Is it possible to use for both?
    Thx in advance
    Rudra
    6600 is quite old model too. You should check out their newer model of speaker like the I-Trigue 5600 if it's available in your country. With this speaker, there's a line in at the remote. With this line in, you can have the TV connected from rca to minijack to the remote and to top this off, the speaker itself have the CMSS feature from creative sound card and with this feature, you can upmix the tv sound to 5. soundfield and it definitely sound good.

  • Inspire 6.1 6600 Repair??ANYBODY??

    After about 3 years of reliable usage, my Inspire 6.1 sub took a dump. It just made a "BOOMP" sound and power went off. I checked internal fuse and it's fine,... anybody know where I can get this repaired?
    Creative just wants to sell me a NEW system and charge me $2.99 for a "Tech Session" for trouble shooting........
    ARE YOUR SPEAKERS PLUGGED IN AND TURNED ON.........yep
    IS YOUR REMOTE SWITCH TURNED ON.................................yep
    ARE YOUR CABLES ATTACHED PROPERLY...............................yep
    ARE YOU SURE THE SOUND SOURCE IS SENDING SIGNAL..... yep
    .....OK,.... IT's BROKE..................................DUHHHHHHHHH HHHhhhhhhh!!! $2..99 PLEASE.
    You know, the sad thing is;
    I use many other Creative products on my job (Music Production). I use Creative Jukeboxes, Creative Soundcards, as well as creative Playcenter2 & Mediasource.....
    I work with this equipment every day,... my production schedule demands reliable gear or a least quick customer service. We can't afford the "down time".
    I have REALLY been considering switching to iPod's and with the lack of customer service I am getting from Creative,.... I might just go that direction. I have been told I "won't look back".
    Since I can't even get schematics (thats "Internal Map" ??,...for SOME Creative tech people),......... to have my Inspire 6.1 6600 system repaired (which from the looks of this forum is a COMMON PROBLEM ),..... I guess maybe I'd be better off spending my $$$ somewhere else.

  • Creative Inspire 6.1 6700 bro

    I've just moved and when I first tried to power on my creative speakers they just won't.
    When I switch on the speaker with the little hand controller, the light in the middle just won't light. Also when I tune it on the pc I won't hear any sound, while with an older set of creative speaker it works.
    Because the light on the hand controller doesn't turn on, I suppose it might be a problem with the power adapter?
    I would like to know where I can order a new one. (reference MODEL TEAC-66-35000V)
    Anything else that can helpme solve the problem is welcome
    My product is probably out of warranty because it's been at least 2 years that I've bought them.
    I'm living in Brussels, and if you knwo any place where I can go, and have my product repair this is useful.
    Thanks

    hello I`m from Bulgaria. I have the same problem with my speaker system creative inspire 6. 6700... ? I can`t find a similar? adapter anywhere Please help ;( do you now from where i can buy an adapter or order it's?
    Thanks in advance ?

  • How to get Realtek HD Audio to work with Creative Inspire 5.1 5200?

    Hi,
    I have a problem with correctly setting the Realtek HD Audio with my Creative Inspire 5200 5.1 speaker set. I don't get any sound on all of them when test button is clicked, only surround speakers work. They were working on my old PC. I did a search on this forum and Internet, but could not find any solution to this specific problem.
    Setting:
    * MSI drivers: 6.0.1.6267, directx 11, ALC 892
    * Speakers set to default audio device
    * Plugged in 3 jacks, colors matching (3 in a row - black:rear, orange: center/subwoofer, green:side speakers)
    * On Realtek HD Audio Manager: Speaker configuration: 5.1 Speaker; Optional spakers: center, subwoofer, rear pair checked; full range speakers: front left and right and surround speakers checked; speaker fill/swap/bass management disabled.
    What I get:
    * left surround clicked: OK
    * right surround clicked: OK
    * No sound from others
    Tests:
    * Checked not muted
    * Checked volume control, not set to zero
    * Rechecked cables from MB to Creative Subwoofer
    * Rechecked cables from Creative Subwoofer to speakers
    * Checked other spaker configuration settings:
    - Stereo : no sound
    - Quadro: only surround spakers OK
    - 7.1: surround spakers OK + left 2nd surround sound comes from right front speaker
    Any directions are very much appreciated
    Cheers

    PS: See signature for my setup

    I get something very similar with my Logitech 5.1 setup. However, I'm using a Creative Pro sound card. Some reminders for you. Remember that everyday normal sound is not encoded DD 5.1, i.e. Windows prompts, MP3, etc. 2 channel left and right stereo sound only nets 2 speakers even though you have 5.1. Unless you've set the sound card, or speaker controler to convert normal 2 channel left and right stereo to DD 5.1 you will only hear 2 speakers. It takes software that's dolby digital encoded to bring all 5.1 speakers to life. For example for every day computer sound my logitch speaker controller is set to "stereo x 2.1". With this setting the contoller sends 2 channel stereo to the front 2 speakers as well as rear 2 speakers plus the sub woofer. My center channel stays quiet until I change the controller effect to DD 5.1. I would change the speaker controller to DD 5.1 if I were to watch a DD 5.1 encoded DVD movie, or play a DD 5.1 encoded game. Keep in mind unless the software is encoded DD 5.1 anything you hear through all 5.1 speakers is SIMULATED! IMO the stereo x 2.1 sounds MUCH better than simulated DD 5.1. 
    Thank you for your answer, but I couldn't go so far yet I know some about sound and sound setups as I'm working in this area, namely video editing, sound processing, montage etc.
    The problem is at "test button" level, somehow the mobo cannot drive the correct lines :(

  • Help setting up Creative Inspire T6100 (5.1) to HP Laptop

    Hi I recently bought Creative Inspire T600 (5.) speakers. I am unable to connect this to my HP DV6T laptop having only one input for speakers where as creative t600 has 3 pins in black, orange and green colors. I am stuck here. Could anyone please tell me how to connect the 5. speakers to my laptop? Appreciate your help.
    Arun.K.S

    Not really 100% sure (I only have a Creative T3030 2.1 that has a single 3.5mm jack) but from everything that I Googled, it looks like a stereo 3.5mm to RCA adapter and a Logitech 5.1 Game Console Adapter should work.

    But to be safe, it might be best to check with Creative and see what they recommend for connecting it to the iMac.
