A dirty volume pot. could be the culprit, a squirt of "electronic contact cleaner" sprayed in the volume control pot should solve it
Crackling/Distortion noise when I turn up volume.
My Rogue 66 Magnum preamp seems to be the problem here but I'm not 100% sure.
When I'm playing music and I walk over to my system to turn up the volume, a crackling/distortion noise occurs, especially in the left channel.
The system is warmed up and I do not use a remote.
Along those same lines, when I play music very low after the family goes to bed, the right channel plays fine but the left channel is almost non exsistent until I creep up the volume, then both channels seem to play at the same level but it's louder than I'd prefer.
Final note-I have taken both my preamp and amp to my local audio repair shop that I've used for years and they cleaned the volume control pod on the Rogue and ran test on both units and found nothing wrong.
Any feedback please?
Your time is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
