Overheated loudspeakers spurs recall of audio receivers

The Niles Audio Corporation of Miami, FL has voluntarily recalled about 3800 of its ZR-6 MultiZone-brand audio receivers, manufactured in China.

According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), a failure in the receiver’s internal components can cause connected loudspeakers to overheat and cause a fire, posing a fire hazard to consumers.

Niles reports that it has received notice of three incidents of connected loudspeakers overheating, but no cases of injuries to consumers.
