Sony WX-GT90BT - No sound - RCA/Line out to amp

Just installed a new Headunit (Sony WX-GT90BT) with a small amp to supply more power to my speakers. I have properly wired the amp into the speakers and I am using the RCA (line out) cables to link into the headunit. The headunit turns on but there is no sound.
I have checked and rechecked all the fuses and wire configurations. Everything is as it should be, I was wondering if maybe the RCA ouputs are disabled by default. If thats the case does anyone know how to enable them. Any help would be much appreicated.

I also encounter the same issue. It would be great if someone could help. Thanks!

Audio problems - soft sound, no line-out detected

ok, so a number of things went wrong with my computer.
it was working perfectly, and i opened garage band up to record music, and all of a sudden, no sound was coming out. at this stage i was using the line-out to my stereo amp. it also wouldnt let me change the volume and came up with the circle-with-a-line-through-it symbol.
i did all the standard stuff, close garage band, play with the settings, go into system pref. restarted it, and then it was making some strange fuzzy noises, and system pref. said that no audio devices were detected, so i restarted again. now i only have built-in output detected, and its very quiet, even on full volume, the volume and mute controls all work.
so thats all of my problems. im currently running OS X 10.4.10 on an intel-based iMac.
thanks

Folks,
on Nov. 29, 2007 we have begun shipping a revised PocketDock Line Out USB, which is now iPhone-enabled. We have also revised the 1/8" stereo plugs on the included cables, so they are now thin enough to fit the iPhone’s recessed headphone jack.
Note that not all retailers might have the newest stock, so if you want to be on the safe side, either ask for which revision they sell (the iPhone-option is mentioned on the packaging) or order directly from http://www.sendstation.com.

Clicking sound on line out

Does anyone know why I am getting a clicking sound (about 80 bpm) on the line out port but not on the front output port. This is a 3GZ mac pro running OSX 4.9. Also, what's the proceedure for getting the machine fixed while still (just barely) under warranty? Hopefully it's just a software problem. Thanks, Ron

Do you have your audio cables running close to strong power sources, power cables etc? This can sometimes create noises similar to the kind of thing you're describing. That would be the first thing I'd want to rule out before checking the hardware itself.

NO SIGNAL FROM SOUND CARD LINE OUT JA

I have a Sound Blaster Li've-Value Digital 024 card on my pc, and I have been trying to use the line out (black) jack, but there is no audio signal coming from it. I use the green jack for my external speakers and they work fine,I have plugged them into the black output and still no sound.
What am I doing wrong, I need som help ?

Dubmaster,
The Black Jack is the rear speaker output, it does not play the same signal as the front speaker out. Set the system to 4. on speaker settings in Audio HQ and it will enable the rear speakers. This will turn on the output for the rear jack.

No sound in line out port

I am experiencing a weird problem. I can play music from my itunes, the internet, etc., and the sounds come out into my external speakers just fine. When i hook up something like a tape deck to the audio in port on my computer- I get no sound. I've gone into preferences- sound, Input, and choose "audio line in"- and I can see the input levels working just fine. When I go to Output- all i get is "built in audio" as an option?
I added software called "Audio Hijack" to capture sound on my computer and record it. I put something called " sunflower" into my output devide- but it's not highlighted, and I don't think it's the problem.
Shoulden't there be an additional audio line out showing up under preferences- output?. Is it hidden in my computer?

I don't have any way of geting sound into my QS, but I'm thinking that it just doesn't go in the Sound In then to the Sound Out, (may be way off on this), but needs to be captured/recorded, then played back to Sound Out.

No sound from Line out on X-Fi El

I have lost my sound from the Line Outs on a X-Fi elite. Or rather I can hear it but only if the volume is a 00% and then it is very poor quality. I have been using the Headphone Jack on the breakout box and this is my first time trying the Line Out. Can somebody tell me if the Line out is supposed to be a true low power Line out or is it capable of powering unpowered speakers or some small headphones. It seems to me that headphones should work fine from the Line out, so what do you suppose my problem is? I have checked the normal (IRQ, Drivers, default device, volumes, etc.). Any ideas? I'm running an MSI Nforce3 250gb board.
thanks...

mr. kat,
unfortunately, I don't have Playcenter -- I downloaded the file from Creative, and am met with the same message I receive when attempting to install Creative Recorder on win XP: nothing to upgrade, so no go on the install. I don't know how to get the data onto win XP in order for it to be upgraded. :0
I do remember there being CMSS back when I ran this device with my win98 computer, and that probably has something to do with it. I don't have EAX console either, but I do have the EAX Control Panel (aka Audio HQ) and there were no CMSS features there.
I have heard that one can use the SB Audigy installation with their SB Li've! cards and it will work -- have you heard anything to that effect?
Thanks,
mono

Is it possible to record sound from line out ?

Hi,
I am wondering is it possible to capture the live audio which is coming out to headphone, using Java Sound API?
I have searched through the Java Sound API and looks like it is impossible. So I want some experience guys throw some light on this.
Thanks.

I have the same question more or less. Can an HDMI to Thunderbolt adapter cable be used to capture video into iMovie?

2 kHz Tone Generation: Sound card Line Out versus Wien-brid

Line Out 1

Hello,
i have the SB Audigy 2 ZS and a Logitech 2. Soundsystem but also a Headset (Phone + Micro) for use when gaming and using voice coms.
So here is my problem. In my current speakersystem i am only able to plug in the Headphone into an aditional plug, but not the microphone. But for using my Headset when gaming i need the micros also so i have to plug it into the SB Audigy into Line out 2 and the micro into micro. So far so good, but when i select in the audiopreferences / Speakersetup " speakersystem or headphones i only get sound at Line out and Line out 2 is silent.
If i set the settings to Quadrophonic or 5. etc i get sound at Line Out 2 also but only the soundsignals that should come from behind and not the whole spectrum of sounds deli'vered.
So is there any way to have both Line Out & 2 give me a signal good for Headphones / 2 Speaker system?
All other ways i only have Line Out Frontsignal and Line Out 2 rear signal, what doesnt fit realy my needings.

The soundcard is operating as designed what you need to do is set speakers to 2. and use a splitter connected to line-out .

Line out audio line level too low to be useable, just started after update

I'm pretty sure this is a software issue. My line out level is so low it is not useable. Headphone jack still works. I removed all the audio preferences, cleared the cache, rebooted, reconfigured audio midi setup. I maxed out the volume, used the sound preference pane and selected line out. No improvent.
I picked up an m-audio Fast Track for now. Has anyone experienced this and resolevod it. I'm running 10.5.8...

I put my son's PPC Mac Mini in target disk mode and booted off of it. Audio issue still persists. I wonder if the digital out / line out switch has a non volitile register ? or it could be fried ? I booted linux on onthe box and used alsamixer
I saw the ES9168 (or something like that).. that's the switch right ? It had no value.
I guess for now I'll get an Maudio device for sound.. but I still hope to figure our what if this is a software issue or is it hardware. The signal is low.. I put my oscilloscope on across the speaker inputs while a sound was playing.. 25mv! It's supposed to be 1v. I don't know how they designed the line out, there is no schemetic. I wonder if what happened is the line out pre-amp blew and I am hearing whatever signal is leaking/bridging across.
Everything else on my late 2005 powermac g5 is fine. It may be 5 years old but I can render HD video fine, and it's been very stable so I figured I'll keep it till it dies. There's one problem with that though. I've got over 3000 pictures in iPhoto that I shot, and my perl/php development projects are on it, plus my family videos are all on it I server them up to the Apple tv. Ahh.. I guess I have to backup / archive to something that will be compatible.
Well.. I'll start saving.
If you can think of any other possibilities let me know. I kind of think booting off the imac in target disk mode ruled out software, but then again the audio driver may be different from the one my G5 uses. Is there any Apple Service Disk kicking around for a Powermac G5 late 2005 model ? Maybe there's code on there to test / initialize the onboard audio.

Mac Mini (power pc) line out - seeking better sound alternative

I have an older (power pc) mac mini connected to a stereo preamp via headphone/line out. Does anyone know if this it a true line out (2volt flat EQ no amplification/distortion) or is there an alternative product that could improve the audio output? i.e TrendsAudio USB Audio converter or Grifin FireWave? I'm looking for a high quality stereo audio signal via RCA connections to an sweet-sounding classic analog stereo system.

The Griffin iMic has a good history for audio out.

No sound out of back line out MacPro Bootcamp 3.1 Windows 7 64bit

No sound out of back line out speakers.
MacPro Early 2008
Bootcamp 3.1
Windows 7 64bit
Realtek HD audio driver.
I have speakers plugged into the back line out.
They work in Mac 10.6.4 (as always) and in Parallels 5 Windows 7 using Bootcamp partition.
All other jacks work. In Realtek driver it shows nothing connected to that jack.
Anybody else have this issue?
Anybody else have solved this?

Anyone at all?
Even if you don't have the issue yet have a similar setup. Maybe I can figure out if there's a driver update I may need.
BTW I KNOW others have this as I've seen this mentioned on other forums. What I do NOT know is whether it's "everyone" or there's something about systems that don't have this issue, I need to follow.

Toshiba nb505 dual monitor & line out sound

Hi all, I've gotten a toshiba recently. Everything is working perfectly right out of the box--except the dual monitor setup (w/ a maxent moniter as the secondary).
The maxent works fine w/ other laptops, so that item is not the problem. It has to be the toshiba. When the toshiba starts up, the images like the toshiba logo and very initial windows splash will show up. But then it stops, and the maxent just goes back to its blue screen. In addition, the line out sound will only play right speaker sound (on the maxent and other devices) . . . but w/ headphones it is fine.
Please advise on any suggestions. Drivers are all up-to-date and windows updates are good, so I'm really lost.
This should be basic, so it's pretty disappointing this isn't working. Thank you!
system info:
toshiba nb505-508BL
OS Windows 7 Home Premium, 32 bit

update:
sound line out: Apparently the speaker on that maxent monitor flat out just doesn't work anymore--no matter what input. And I suppose my hearing is such that it may well have been like that for a while, as it's unlikely the toshiba just happened to blow out that speaker these few recent times I hooked it up to the maxent (as there was no such indication, like a pop or the like).
dual monitor: Testing w/ other monitors successfully, this seems to be more a compatibility issue w/ the Maxent itself (though there may be other monitors it won't work w/, too). So I mostly wanted to put this out there still if wide compatibility w/ dual/external monitors is something that others are considering this sys. for, too. . . .
Otherwise, the netbook is working fine, and I have no other complaints--though I found this dual monitor issue rather disappointing (still I feel it's quite possible that a RAM upgrade may resolve this, since others have cited that upgrade as rather essential for getting the most out of this little sys., but I haven't tried that yet).

Line out and Sound Effects revert to Internal Speakers when I reboot. Any suggestions?

I have an early 2008 Mac Pro that runs fine under Yosemite. The Sound preference panel worked under Mavericks, but now I must open the Sound panel and manually change the output for both Output and Sound Effects from Internal Speakers to Line Out after a reboot. This is irritating and is becoming more so.
I've zapped the PRAM with no success.
Would an AppleScript app on startup work? I can't seem to find any appropriate commands in AppleScript that affect these parameters.
Any help appreciated.

The script doesn't seem to work on Yosemite. Trolling around in the library, it appears that "audio" is now "sound," which would explain the file not found.
Or am I missing something?
Suggestions?

Guys ... I have a 2008 MacPro running the current Yosemite. I also have installed the sound amp called "BOOM!" I have the Sound set to Line Out which should have the computer boot up to BOOM! Instead, it boots up to the Internal speaker. What's up?

Hi Folks ...
I have a 2008 MacPro running the current Yosemite. I have installed the recommended upgraded video card, but the sound is as it was new. I also have installed the sound amp/graphic equalizer called "BOOM!" I have the Sound set to Line Out which should have the computer boot up automatically to BOOM! and thus to the external speakers. Instead, it boots up to the Internal speaker. According to the folks at "BOOM!", this is happening to others who have similar Macs. They can't find any explanation within BOOM!, so I am turning to you all. Any ideas?

Hi Kappy ...
Sorry, I guess I didn't state the problem very well.
I don't want the computer to boot up to the internal speaker. I want it to boot up to the external speakers. However, even though System Preferences is set on Line Out, when the computer boots up or reboots, it erroneously goes to internal speaker. So, every time I boot up, I have been going to System Preference/Sound and clicking on Line Out. From that point on, everything is OK until the next boot up. It is a small annoyance, but annoying all the less. The simple explanation seems to be that when the computer is shut down, it does not hold the setting for Line Out and resets itself to Internal Speaker. How do I change that behavior and get it to go to Line Out whenever it boots up?
