I bought some DSP33's off eBay, it's taken me awhile to get them up and running. There's a definite issue of vocal balance being one-sided, doesn't seem to be helped much by balance control, and it swaps sides when I swapped the speakers...
They've been reset using the comms plug tool.
I'm guessing a tweeter problem in one of them? Does anyone know if anyone repairs these, MrTechGuy does not. Alternatively I could try to find a single.
Disappointing but not a total disaster given the pricing. Still annoyed.

I've sent you a PM with a couple of suggestions that may help.
Cheers,
Steve

I had a similar problem that turned out to be the M5 & S5 cables were transposed. Also, does the source have a balance control?

My setup is:
Meridian 561 operating solely as control, comms cable to left speaker, then comms cable from left to right speaker. The two comms cables have different pin configurations and can only go one way.
iPhone USB C to DSD Tech USB-C to SPDIF coax.
SPDIF coax into left speaker and then from left speaker to right speaker.

Hi Stuart,
Certainly looks like it. I have been sent some other suggestions that need me to get config up and running, otherwise I'd look at replacing (maybe both at same time like tyres?)

SPDIF coax into left speaker and then from left speaker to right speaker. Have you tried SPDIF coax into 561 then coax out to left and right speakers?
