Popping noise when turning on Nait5

Posted by: kentonious on 11 May 2002

Hello everyone...have a Nait5 and Naca5 cable
on loan from dealer. Source is CD5/Flatcap2.
When turning on the Nait5(after everything else
is turned on) I get some rather load popping
sounds from the speakers(tried a couple of different speakers). It is almost like a series
of 3-4 short pops. Otherwise, system is warming warming up nicely. Also notice some popping sounds when turning the unit off. Others experience this? Thanks very much.

I suspect the regulars here are just being snobs or maybe can't be bothered with the simple things anymore.

Yes it is normal to hear the pops. Leave the kit on all the time if you don't want to hear again. Infact leave it all on anyway!

Thanks...I appreciate it. I notice the Nait5
is more susceptible to ticks and pops in speakers
when air conditioning kicks off. Or maybe
be coming from Nat05 tuner...I didn't notice
it on previous equipment. I'll keep an eye(ear)
on it.
