    Rotel RSX 1057 Sub Crossover Problem...

    Hi guy's

    I allways had my sub crossover on the Rotel RSX 1057 on 100hz. I have a large room and like little bit more bass. Recently i got a new Paradigm Servo 15 V2 to replace my old mission Sub. Anyways now i developed a Poping sound when the receiver changes settings from prologic to dolby digital.

    Never had a poping sound before, and was wondering if this is normal? I am also using a Y-Adapter on the sub that i never used on the mission sub. I wonder if this have any contribution to the poping noise?

    I turned down the crossover to 80Hz but still didn't make a difference. I really can't tell the difference between 80 an 100 in my room anyways..

    So is this normal or should i have the receiver looked at?

    Note: All my speakers are hooked up to the rotel RMB 1075. I am using the 1057 as a pre/pro...

    Sounds like your new sub has introduced some type of ground problem on the system. Pick up a 3-2 prong adapter for where your sub plugs in and see if it makes a difference.

        Might be a rumor, but I have heard they are illegal in Canada. Might have to get a spare power cord (if it's removeable) and break the ground pin off to test.

            Hi guy's

            It was the Y-Adapter.. I got a new Y-adapter and a shorter subwoofer cable and the problem is solved..

            Also on a side note.. What do you guy's run your sub crossovers at? 80Hz or 100Hz?

            Cheers,

                  It does sound like a ground issue.
