[Hidden-tech] Stereo Guru?

[DAVID F. FARKAS]

No the usual computer question, but I figured there must be some 
stereo / sound geeks here too.

I have an older surround sound stereo in my office / bedroom. Pioneer 
VSX3800 with a CD changer. It has two sets of front speakers and rear 
speakers. I often leave it on 24/7 for background music or running 
meditation kinds of CDs.

Recently it has developed a background hiss and random, veryloud, 
popping heard throught he speakers (not, in the box.) If it was a 
vacuum tube unit (dating himself... which is better than no dates at 
all) I would say it was a power supply vacuum tube... that kind of 
sound but harder / louder.

All devices seem to work fine and the sound is still great, with this 
new stuff over it. But, it's so loud I can't use the system

I have disassembled the case. Blown out dust. Wiggled cables. Cast 
out ghosts and demons... all to no avail.

Ideas?

Please respond off list to keep the mods happy about not having long 
non-computer tech conversations on the list.

Thanx.
David
