There's a crackle static sound coming out of the right channel on a KR-6160. It's not dependent on volume level; whether volume is zero or maxed out the static remains the same level. All inputs have this sound, changing mode to right, left, rev - all of them the static remains in the right...
Hi,
I'm trying to do a restore on a harman Kardon 430. should be simple enough. But I've come across an issue i cannot track down. There is a crackle at all volumes. not a hum, but crackle. It occurs through headphones & the speakers. in both channels.

Hi, hope you’re all well. I’m new here & would really appreciate some help here as a novice to vintage amps.
My lovely Sansui receiver was working wonderfully the past 3 years until the right channel suddenly developed loud static & low volume. Left channel is working fine. I swapped the...
My P200 has started crackling when I first turn it on. After a while it stops making noise and sounds clean for hours.
I think this must be a capacitor, possibly in the signal path.
Has anyone seen this symptom before? Any ideas that can point me in the right direction to repair it? I'm not...
I have an old Pioneer SX-737. When I power up and turn up the volume, I get an annoying crackle out of the right channel. It only occurs low on the volume pot's range and goes away after working the pot back and forth a few times.
A while back when I had it open to replace some transistors, I...
Hey there! I've recently noticed that the second hand Dali Zensor center speaker I got sounds distorted at certain frequencies, like deeper voices, and gets worse with higher volume.
I inspected the speaker and found when I gently press on the cone of the left side speaker, it makes a crackling...
I picked up a Carver HR 895 receiver a while ago. I purchased it from and bought it from the original owner. They had kept everything except the box. All channels work, the surround modes work. I may use this in my tv room instead of my RX-V1400. There are a couple of issues. I heard that these...
Hi all. I have a Sanyo dcx6000k that has developed a crackling noise problem on one channel. At first it would crackle upon power up for 15 seconds then operate perfectly. Now it starts crackling after about 10 mins of operation. I have tried different speakers. It will crackle regardless of...
Hi forum, I've just signed up. I do a lot of restoration of old hifi gear. I probably should have signed up ages ago. But nevertheless I like the look of this forum and hope to contribute and gain from the experience. I have just completed restoration of a Goodmans One Ten that I bought for...
Hello all, I have a Revox turntable in working condition, I've replaced all the capacitors, diode bridges and whatever is reasonable in such an old machine, the regulators I remember, in practice all the components that Revox experts recommends to change.
The speed is OK, from time to time...
Hello everyone, I just purchased a NOS Syntec S220 and crackles when I move the tonearm or when playing a record. I've seen a similar posted question in the past. Is this related to the wires? I tried disconnecting the ground and that it didn't help. Thanks!
I have a Bose 901 series 3 active equalizer that has a crackle in the left channel.The unit has been recapped, and all transistors in the left channel outside of one 2n3906 have been replaced. I swapped the 2n3906 with the identical transistor from the right channel (which does not produce this...
For many years I have been a "Promenader". For a variety of reasons I decided not to get a season ticket this year.
I have set up an Amp, a FM Tuner and Speakers in my living room (Quad 33/303, FM3 and ESL-57).
For the past two nights I have been plagued by hiss and crackles on quiet passages...
Do excuse my lack of experience,
I just fixed up an old CD player (Technics Sl-P101) thats been sitting in my parents house unused. Fixes were a new belt and some lubrication. Played a few disks and I'm fairly happy with the sound. However briefly (And I only mean briefly) the audio on the left...
Hey now. I was given a Tandberg TR2075 receiver from my aunt and uncle last month. The right speaker crackles real loud even when the volume is all the way down. I've attached speakers to A, B, and C inputs and nothing changes. It's not the turntable or cassette deck. I took the cover off and...
A few months ago I picked up a cheap Marantz 2270 - it's the model my folks had when I was growing up so I'm very fond of it and it sounded better than I was expecting...but it's starting to show its age (and price). Main issue is a loud, persistent crackling noise from the right channel -...
Hi everybody,
After some unsuccesfull troubleshooting last year I've decided to tackle the 'big one' in my collection again, the Kr-7060(=gunmetal kr-7600).
The problem is as follows:
After the unit is has been playing normally for about 1h-1.5hrs, occasionally I'get a loud pop from one of...
Hi. I need some help diagnosing a problem. I have a Kenwood KA-3500, which has developed a problem with one of the channels crackling. The crackle doesn't start immediately when the amp is turned on, and takes at least a minute to get going. The channel still plays, but does seem to be down on...
Hello all.
I have a Skytec 15" and 1" Active PA Speaker, 1500w Advertised Peak Power.
Ive noticed that at a high volume the woofer (mainly) makes a crackle sound like a loose cable or something alike, I run this speaker with the level on maximum and the power at about 1/2 - 2/3, inbetween...
Hey guys. What's up?
I bought a Marrantz 2238b reciver from this guy and it sounds great. The problem I have with it is that every once in a while it starts with this quiet crackle and then a few powerful pops. This happens on the left speaker and even when the volume is off. I went to get it...
Hi, beginner here, so please bear with me! :)
I have a NAD 705 receiver which when switched on makes fairly loud "pop" noises on the left channel, and the right channel most of the time only comes on after shortly cranking up the volume knob, then crackles quite a bit. After playing for about...

Hi,
I am absolutely new to the "vinyl- experience" and trying to learn a thing or two while using cheaper secondhand equipment I collected. After installment, I'm still figuring out why my speakers are crackling and the sound...
Hi AK
I hope some of you might have some pointers for a recent Kenny purchase.
I bought a KA-7300 with a defective phono stage (as advertised). The amp otherwise works as expected but produced no sound at all through the phono inputs. The Tuner/Aux inputs that also pass through the board...
