Onkyo TXSR604 popping sound from Surround Speakers
by jrworth - 11/18/06 12:07 PMI have been using an Onkyo TXSR604 to power my home theater for about two months. I have it connected to a Definitive Technology ProCinema 60 5.1 speaker system. Recently, the left surround speaker started making a popping sound. It is a short stuccato pop that is not tied to variations in loudness and appears to occur randomly. To rule out speaker problems, I switched the two surround speakers and the sound continued to come out of the left side. To rule out speaker cable problems, I switched the left and right outputs on the back of the receiver. When I did this, the popping started coming out of the right side. Hence, it seems clearly to be linked to the left surround output on the receiver.
Has anyone encountered this problem? Any suggestions? The receiver is under warranty, but I don't really want to be without it if I can help it.
Thanks.
HOPE THIS HELPS

Still No Luck

MR. WORTH MAY I SUGGEST

Same receiver same problem!
by SeeRyder01 - 7/14/08 7:28 PM In reply to: Onkyo TXSR604 popping sound from Surround Speakers by jrworthI was just doing some poking around on the Internet about this same problem with my Onkyo TXSR604. I have a Klipsch surround and sounded perfect for the first 6 or 10 months. It's a popping from the left rear speaker every so often and doesn't matter if I'm watching a DVD or cable.
I notice this thread is a little older, but would really really like to hear from you about the conclusion with your Onkyo.
Thank you much!

Yamaha same problem
by mikev4155 - 7/25/08 3:48 PM In reply to: Onkyo TXSR604 popping sound from Surround Speakers by jrworthUnfortunately I have the same problem with my Yamaha HTR 5450 receiver. My receiver started off with a faint pop on the right speaker so I switched the speaker wire (as you did) and my left speaker started popping. Also, when I hit the switch button on the receiver I also hear the popping sound, my conclusion, “The receiver.” - I did have the Yamaha receiver for 12 years and it served its purpose well. Now my radar is on the Denon AVR 1909.
