Left speaker buzzing

I have a pair of speakers, and a woofer, that are passive, and they're connected to integrated amp. When i turn them on, left speaker starts to buzz in low-end. But if i increase volume and play some bassy music, the buzzing will go away. If i try to switch the speakers, problem will be transfered to the other, right speaker, and the left one will work fine. And sometimes that speaker canal will kinda lose conection and volume would lower itself, sometimes even off. If someone can tell me how to fix this, i would greatly appreciate that.

 

Amp: Telefunken Ra 100

If swapping the speakers over transfers the sound, its the amplifier. gotta buy a new one or have a go at fixing it yourself.

Main speaker setup is now;

 

Mini DSP SHD Studio -> 2x Mola Mola Tambaqui DAC's (fed by AES/EBU, one feeds the left sub and main, the other feeds the right side) -> 2x Neumann KH420 + 2x Neumann KH870

 

(Having a totally seperate DAC for each channel is game changing for sound quality)

Are those repairs expensive? Or should i just go for a new one? If yes which one do you recommend, around 100 euros..

On speakers 55/110w, on woofer 80/120w. i think that first number is rms and second musical power?

The first one is RMS - The second will be peak - so it can provide the RMS continuously - then the peak in brief periods of time, such as a punchy bass kick -

Hm.. how do you have the woofer connected? Is it just connected to the "Speaker B" terminals?

Also, is it really worth it to upgrade to new amplifier?

Oh that makes alot of sense. so the woofer acts as the crossover network and amp for the other speakers. If you're having issues with the left speaker buzzing could get a cheap amplifier from amazon such as the Monacor SA-50, and if that isnt the problem then return the amp.
