Random sound disturbances.

I have a 25-year-old NAD 7120 receiver. After a few years of not using it, now there is an occasional crackling noise from speakers, and each speaker comes in and out at random. I have checked the speaker outputs and the inputs at the speakers, to no avail. Could it be dirty pots?

SOURCE: volume and multi channel output issue

Hi there. Are you familiar with board level repair for such products ? Your problem is most likely hardware. Either some of the final output transistors are fried, or it's a dsp problem, a regulator, a diode, a transistor in the circuit.. it could be a lot of things. But if everything was working fine and it quit someday without a change in the system's setup, it really looks like an hardware issue ! Do you have a way in the manual, that sets factory defaults, a kind of reset ? A lot of such units do have that. Try to unplug/interchange speakers as well, a shorted speaker could make the amp go nuts as well, but i wouldn't bet on it. Still, i'd check that out. Hope that helps ! cheebster.

SOURCE: NAD T762 - no sound

Try reseating the prologic/output board. Second one from the right (from the front of the reciever), that fixed my no sound problems on many channels. You will have to take out a few screws to remove and reseat it, and while you are at it clean the connections.

Hotpoint Aquarius dishwasher making awful rumble/crackle noise

Have you cleaned the traps and run some vinegar through? They build up dirt from kitchen debris over time which causes the pump and spray rails to pick up sludge. You need to clean them at least every 6 months. Check farther on line for cleaning solutions to clean and maintain dishwashers. I have been hearing clr can be used but can't confirm this.

Sounds like bad solder connections somewhere on the main board!
If the unit is a few years old or more connections break down from "heat" and use.Try resoldering and/or take to a good shop for repair!

My Stereo integrated hi fi amp is giving a crackle when output from certain devices - like a build up of static at intervals. It is quite old NAD amp - is this a sign of transistor failure, is it worth...

This sounds like you may have a lot of solder connections on the amp board and the power supply board to be resoldered. After a few years of using the unit they can get heat stressed and develop cracks in them. The sooner you get this fixed the better. NAD is a very good brand of stereo and in most cases they are well worth getting fixed. If the stereo is used for too long it can develope some component break downs that would cost much more money to repair.

Sometimes the static or crackle sound is just the volume control or other controls like the balance or teble or bass controls that just need to be cleaned with the proper type of electronic contact cleaner.

I hope this helps, have a nice holiday season,

Dave

NAD 7140

The clicking is the sound of a bad relay. A relay is an electrical switch that opens and closes under the control of another electrical circuit. There is no user solution for this. You'll have to take it to an electronics repair shop (~$150) or dump the whole unit.

Crackling noise from tv

That crackling noise has nothing to do with the television and everything to do with your antenna. It is merely signal breakdown, when you get signal interference with analogue tv you get snow, with digital you get little squares on the screen and/or sound breaking and cutting in and out, get a licensed antenna repairer to come out check your signal strength as you may need a booster or your antenna could just be a few degrees off....

Losing volume on channels

I am afraid not. That crackling is a component in one of the solid state amp circuits starting to fail. These are all soldered into the printed circuit board. This could be a difficult repair to find an intermittant component. Depending on how old the unit is and how much it cost will factor in on if you have it repaired or not. Rule of thumb is that if the unit is two to three years old and cost less the 200 to 300 bucks you should not invest more then 100 to 150 bucks into it. Good Luck
