RSX-1055 and pop throu speakers...?

[Tha Freak]

I have a RSX-1055 and since I installed my HT in my new house, there is often (not everytime) a pop in the speakers when I turn it "ON" from Standby mode...?

It was not the case in the other place (before I moved) ??

Is there a miss conection in my set-up?
Do I have a ground issue in this electrical line relay? or on the whole house?

little detail, it's carpet floor (static acumulation from the carpet?), other home was hard wood floor...

[Tha Freak]

no idea??

Don't know which version you have but you might look into this:

On Rotel's website read the release notes for the software upgrade. The latest update to both V1 and V2 do have a note stating that popping sounds during mode transitions are eliminated.

Good luck. Keep us posted.

it's v2.25...

According to Rotel's release notes, version 2.26 addresses this issue.

Also, if it didn't act up in you're old home and now does in you the new place you may be on the right track with the electrical service. If you guys are configured like we are in the states (120-single phase) you could take a meter, set it on vac, and check an outlet in the room. Check ground to hot, should be 120 +/-, check neutral to hot and it should be the same, check neutral to ground and it should be 0 (.2XX or under). Then you could shut the breaker off for that room, put the meter on ohms, check between neutral and ground, and anything around .01 -.03 indicates that circuit is in good shape. From there check and see how the panel is bonded to earth or call an electrician to do so.

Sounds like electrical problem if it was fine in the old place

Is it something I really need to check inside the walls? or a line conditionner will solve the problem?

Line conditioners will supress spikes but not address a bad ground in the source wiring.
