Hi,
I was hoping that someone out there might be able to help me out... I have a Sony 5.1 home theater system. The receiver has a built in 5-DVD changer. Not too long ago, I started getting a loud noise in all of the speakers. It's kind of crackly, and sometimes sounds almost like a geiger counter. I tried disconnecting the receiver from all other components (except for the DVD player, which is built in), but the noise is still there.
I get the noise if I am watching a DVD or if I am watching TV. However, if I go to the menu and run the the test tone, the noise goes away. Also, if I use the FM tuner, the noise goes away. I tried moving the unit to a different room away from other components, but it doesn't help.
Does anyone have any suggestions? This unit is only a year and a half old.
