Hi,

Just upgraded to the latest firmware version of my Akurate Exakt DSM and the latest AV5140 Exakt binaries on my Akurate Exaktbox 6 and I'm noticing very low level clicks and pops coming out from all drivers on both speakers.

Has anyone else noticed this? I fully power off my system each time I'm done using it, so the issue is persistent.

Hi,

Guess what, the crackling and popping sound was due to a failing AV5125 power amp which yesterday decided to put a nice fireworks display in my family room!!!

To the rescue came two LK140s I had in storage as spares and now there is no crackling and popping sound at all.

Looking for a used black Chakra C4200 amp now.
