I have a M-L surround system with Summits and 1 Stage across the front,
Descent i (2) and Descent (2) subwoofers in the corners and Script i's at the sides. I am running the surround sound through a Lexicon 12 HD, feeding a Pass XP 20 preamp for the front speakers (powered by a Pass X350.5) and directly to a Pass X3 for the center and side speakers. All powered components except for the Scripts go into Nordost Thors with dedicated lines. The Scripts are supplied by two PS audio surge protectors.
In the past month, one of the Scripts has developed an intermittent crackle that is unrelated to what is playing. It does not seem to affect the signal coming out when there is source material.
I have already done the easy thing: powered off the speaker and vacuumed the panel. After one day, the intermittent crackle returned.
Has anyone had a similar experience? Is this possible a problem with the ES panel itself? The speakers are still under warranty. However, I would hate to send a speaker off if the problem is somewhere else in my system.
I would appreciate any helpful hints, regarding a fix.
