Inspire 5.1 5300 problems

Hey guys i've got an Inspire 5.1 5300 surround system... Ive had it for a couple of years,and i only hooked up 2 speakers and the subwoofer.Well,i changed it from my sisters computer onto my own,but the rear,center and subwoofer outputs arent working...i cant get the sub to make ANY noise,no feedback or anything. I have a creative es373 soundcard if that helps.
I also installed the soundcard from my sisters computer when mine didnt work,and that didnt work either....any advice?

I dont see how the sub wont work. It has the seperate front, rear, and center in. The sub should work with just the front in as far as i know. My SBS 450 seems to work that way... i have yet to get my inspire 5.1 working but ill find out if i happen to..

Having Problem With Inspire 5.1 5300 rear speaker...

After using my inspire 5.1 5300 for few year... right now im having problem with my rear speaker... just one channel was unable to start... Anyone know about repairing for speaker ? I Have try to switch to other channel it seem that just that rear speaker was unable to start... all should be ok... week before i still hearing sound from that rear speaker... but now it was unable to start. Anyone Have Any Idea Please Tell Me. Thank You

Just to clarify, by "FCP 5 friendly source material," he means video files that are a format (codec) that FCP 5 supports. What FCP 5 supports can be found in the EASY SETUP list. If the format you are working with isn't there, say if your footage is H.264 or MP4 or some other web compressed format, FCP won't work properly. It needs to be in an editing codec if you want FCP 5 to work with it.
Also, you need to make sure that your sequence settings match the settings of the footage you are trying to edit. If you add a clip to the sequence, and immediately have to render, that's a big clue to say that something isn't right. You should edit without rendering at all.
The most important thing you need to do is properly set up your project from the start, and the best way to do this is to choose a setting from the Easy Setups, located under the Final Cut Pro menu. Once you do this, you’ll need to create a new sequence. This is because the sequence that is already in your new project is setup for the typical default setting of DV/NTSC, or for the settings of your last project, which might not match what you are currently working with. So delete SEQUENCE 1 and create a new sequence:
This new sequence will contain the settings you chose in the Easy Setup menu, and should match the format you captured

Looking to Put Inspire 5.1 5300 Back In Service

The situation is like this: I have the Creative Inspire 5.1 5300 speaker system: however, it has a wired remote that doesn't work. (That is literally the only problem; however, with the wired remote unusable, the speaker system itself is useless.) Creative *does* carry other wired remotes (specifically one for the newer Inspire P5800); however, I have no idea if the remote will work with the older 5300 (I'm not expecting the M-Dock to work, and have no use for it if it does). Will the P5800 wired remote work? Will I instead have to contact Creative Direct (I'm in the US) for a 5300 replacement remote? Or am I basically screwed (and thus have to buy another speaker system, which is not exactly inexpensive)?

I tested the speaker again. This time round, I did a few test using VLC, Media Player, and Audacity. What I hear on the VLC and the Media Player is very consistent, the 5kHz tone is not as ear piercing as the 10kHz tone. I then test using Audacity. Initially, the 5kHz tone is more ear piercing then the 0kHz. But after I played the tone again on the VLC and Media player, and then back to Audacity again, what I hear became the same as that played in VLC and Media Player. So, now I am wondering which part of my PC is having problem software, sound card, or some other things that is not known to me. Can somebody please enlighten me?

Inspire 5.1 5300 - only 2 speakers work

Hi,
I've been using these Inspire 5.1 5300 speakers for quite some time and it worked without problems all this while.
But today out of a sudden I realised there is only sound coming out from two of the five speakers.
I thought the speakers were spoilt so I tested by switching the cables around but it worked after that.
What can I do to rectify this problem? Does the problem lie with the settings (I didn't change anything) or the subwoofer that I'm connecting my speakers to?
Any help is appreciated.

Hi - I have the same problem as frogdorr. Onset 2 years ago.
Inspire 5300 speakers with audigy OEM card. Worked fine (and brilliantly!) for several months to a year. Then suddenly back two speakers stopped working. It is not the speakers - rotate them and they work fine but the new back speakers don't work.
Checked all windows settings (2000 & XP), speakers, conflicts etc. Reinstalled win.
Rotate the black and green plugs ( then rear becomes front, front becomes rear) means front left & right speakers don't work.
Used the audigy sound card with quadraphonic speakers (fps600) with no problem front & back. Used built in M/B sound card with the same result- no sound back speakers.
Seems like a cube loose wiring problem to me.
Where to from here?
Is there a service manual or approach to fixing this problem?

Which speaker system is better: Inspire 5200 or 5300?

Hi,
I'm just about to :smileyindifferent: buy new Creative speaker systems. Unfortunately, in my country and city options are scarce. Only few models are available and I am trying to get a good, decent sound, with good bass for bassy songs (i.e. dance, hip-hop), and good sound in general for PC-based games and DVDs.
I am given two choices: Creative Inspire 5200 and 5300. The big question: which one is better? I supposed that since 5300 is a bigger number than 5200, the 5300s should be better; but I may be wrong (e.g. the total RMS power of the 5200s is slightly higher than the 5300s!), so... somebody can give me a piece of advice on this?
I am willing to spend as much as USD$50.00 on my new speakers... so if someone has better speakers in mind for that price, I'm open to suggestions. With luck, I can give them a try.
Regards.

Logic does not run on Windows computers anymore, only on Apple Hardware.

Center Speaker plays center sounds and rear sounds. Inspire 5.1 5300 speakers.

My inspire 5.1 5300 speakers are set up for 5.1 surround sound. I have CMSS enabled. I hear static from the rear speakers. Everything seems to be set up just fine. But when I run the speaker test the front right, center, and front left work. The rear left and rear right speaker sound comes out of the center speaker instead of the rear speakers even though the center speaker also gives out the correct test sound.
I have an audigy card, SB0090 is the model number. I don't know the retail name.

Inspire 5.1 5300 sound problem

Hello,
My Inspire sound system was working very well until now. Now when i power up i get a constatnt hum on the speakers. This hum is even when the incoming cable from the sound card is disconnected. The lamp of the volume regulator comes on when it is turned - so i assume no fuse is blown. Can anybody help me about this problem.
Regards
lalisund

Hi, I have the very same problem with my creative 4.1 speakers. A loud hum begins the moment i start it. Strangely enough it sometimes plays, and sometimes just plays for about 20-30 sec before it goes back to the hum.
If you have found the source of the problem, please let me know too... am pretty bugged with this.
Anyone else who can shed some light on this issue?

Inspire 5300 problems

My friend and I are trying to fix his volume controller. He broke the middle
black prong in the connector. We knew that the connector was the same as a
ps/2 keyboard, so we cut the end off one and off the volume controller. The
problem is that we forgot to check which wires go where on the controller and
the keyboard has different color wires. if anyone can tell us where to get a
new controller or if anyone has a wiring schematic for the controller would be
very helpful.

Same problem for me for about a year and no one can give me any help. Still waiting for the same if i found anything i'll post it.
I've even asked if the guys from creative could give any kind of help for the connections and off course they told me that they couldn't help. If they can't help who can?

Inspire 5.1 5300 connect problems

hi guys
i use a AC97 onboard soundcard, but i cant seem to get all 5 sattelite speakers to work.
i connected my speakers to the subwoofer, and to my onboard card but i only hear 2 speakers and the subwoofer, and if i change some cables i can only hear the other 2 and the subwoofer.
how do i solve this.....
and i dont have a tool/utility/program to change the channels or anything.
i installed the latest drivers for my card.
plz help me with this it costed me all day long to figure it out.

termeulen,
You can try using a software called Media Player Classic for playback of media files. There's a feature whereby you can map the audio source to different channel under it's audio setting but of cos all media have to be playback via the software only. If that's not something you want, then you will need to check with the manufacturer unfortunately as this isn't something this speaker system can achieve.

Creative Inspire 5.1 5300 stopped working due to blown H945 transistor on circuit board.

One night I was woken by a large humming noise coming from the bass box of my Inspire 5300. I killed the power and the noise went off. In the morning I inspected the circiut board contained in the bass unit and found two scorch marks under two transistors markes "H945". I downloaded the datasheet for them(http://www.datasheet4u.com/html/H/9/...vices.pdf.html) and found an equivalent nearest match in the BC82L, general purpose NPN transistor. These are available in the UK from both Maplins and RS Components for a few pence. After removing the transistors it turns out only one of them had burn marks under it, but I changed them both anyway. HEY PRESTO everything came back to normal.
Thank you to the other forum guys that put me in the right direction and?I can confirm BC82L is the right transistor.

I used the C945 and it worked perfectly....
It seems that many people have problems with the H945 transistor....

5300: Problem with firmware upgrade

Hi,
I have Nokia 5300 Xpressmusic with firmware version 4.7. I have recently download Nokia Software Updater and tried to update my phone via USB cable connection. The software runs fine, it identifies my phone correctly, checks for update & tells me that V5.5 is available & downloads it successfully. The problem is that when I press the 'Upgrade' button, 1st it reboots my phone in 'Test Mode', then the 'Preparing installation' window remains on the screen for a couple of minutes & then it gives out an error saying "Connection to phone lost". I've tried reconnecting my cable but it still gives out the same error. Fortunately when I took the batteries out & reinserted & started my phone, it turned on successfully with the previous firmware version. But I still cant get it upgraded. I switched to another PC & tried it there but it still gives out the same error at the same stage. Kindly help me out with this, what is going on here?

Inspire 5.1 5200 - Problem with headphones

I have an Inspire 5.1 5200 using Turtle Beach Santa Cruz.
Recently the right channel stopped working on the headphones. I at first thought the headphones were bad but checked another set and they also would not work on right channel. Tried both sets in another device and they work okay.
All speakers and sub-woofer work when not using headphones.
Only problem is with right channel headphone output.
Any ideas?
Thanks
JNT

I spoke with CL about the problem and they felt that it was the wired remote. The part is $9.99 + $2.99 shipping to lower 48.
I have not ordered it yet as I want to rule out other possible problems as much as possible.
Thanks for the responses.

Inspire 2.1 2500 Problem

I am having a slight problem with my Inspire 2.1 2500 Speaker set:
Latley, there is this annoying static nosie that my speaker emits whenever there is sound. (connected to a pc)
I even managed to notice that while i was playing some music, the sound from the left speaker was suddenly gone for a second, then it stuttered for a few more seconds, and only then did it return to normal.
I would appreciate any advice that will help stop this problem from accuring again.

I face a similar problem with my Inspire 2.1 3300. My right speaker--well, the speaker I put in the right speaker port in the subwoofer--has shorted out recently. I've had the system for around 2-3 years, and while I expect this to happen I would like to attempt repair anyway. I checked the connections at least fourty times, and yet this speaker is functional, breaking up, or very very quiet. I've moved the speaker cord around and found I can get some signal. I'm assuming this problem is in the speaker itself, after inspecting the woofer.
Until my friend looks at it, I can't help you except agree on the situation. I'll get another post in here soon.
