Happy Holidays & Merry Christmas to all…
I just set my McIntosh processor and having some issues………..so any help direction would be highly appreciated. Below are the details of my set up and the issues I’m having:
McIntosh Pre/Pro MSD4
McIntosh MC 7200 (L + R / Kef XQ5)
B&K ST 140 (L + R Surround / Monitor Audio)
B&K ST 125 Powering the Center Channel (Kef XQ 2C)
Issues I’m having:
1) When I turn off the B&K amp powering my Center Channel I notice the speaker making a slight noise as the amp turns off. This to me doesn’t seem right and I want to make sure I don’t end up damaging my Center channel speaker…………is this a Ground Loop issue…..What can I do to fix this issue ? My McIntosh amp doesn’t depict this issue. The B&K amps and McIntosh MSD4 use a three prong power cable…….so not sure if it’s a polarity issue.
2) If I’m watching a DVD and turn of the DVD player prior to turning of the McIntosh pre/pro…..the speakers make a noise as the DVD player turns off. Is this normal? Is it important to turn off the Pre/pro first in a separates set up.
