Reverse the speaker cable going to the speakers. If the problem goes to the right speaker then you will know that left channel of the amp is the problem!
Power on popping sound
Hi Everyone!
Why does the left speaker always make a "pop" noise when the amp powers up? Also, after preamp and amp are powered up there is a low buzz coming from the left speaker. Not sure if I can hear the buzz from the right speaker.
The left speaker also makes a "whoosh" sound when powering off the amp.
Getting paranoid about speaker damage.
Gear:
Speakers: Ologe 5 (Same thing happens with my LS 50 passives)
Amp: Forte Audio 1A
Temporary preamp: ADA Suite 8x8 - (I might pick up an Audible Illusion Modulus 2B but am open to suggestions.)
I also swapped in my Fostex HP A8 as a preamp and got the same popping and buzzing.
