Whistling n-Vi ?

Posted by: james n on 21 May 2008

Over the last few weeks my n-Vi has started to make a high pitch noise - not from the speakers but from the unit itself. It's quite hign frequency - 5 to 10khz and constant in pitch and dissapears when the unit is switched off - its normally on all the time as its used for everything (CD, DVD and normal TV). The noise isn't loud but once heard its difficult to ignore and comes and goes (its just stopped whilst writing this) No faults register on switch on and the unit works as well as a normal n-Vi but the noise starts when the power up bar is nearly full (Power amps ?)

Dealer job ?

Thanks

Sounds like the inductor/transformer windings "ringing" in the switch mode power supply.

If its that irritating, it probably should be returned via your dealer.
