G'day
I have a harmon Kardon AVR130 powering a set of Warfdale diamond 8.1 towers, centre and Yamaha inceiling surrounds. It also powers a Harmon Kardon sub.
About a year ago the sub started making a fast paced "d-d-d-d-d" (like a big helicopter was over the front room) when left in standbye mode. It still does it and i have to manually turn it on when i want to use it, after 5 minutes of no signal it is meant to put itself into standbye but instead does that "d-d-d" noise. so in some quiet movie scenes the sub spoils it due to no signal. Just lately it has started holding a single note and carrying it after a sustained bass heavy section of either movie or song.
what could this be? I think the sub and the amp are 5 years old.
apart from that it is great, when i get a good movie out the neighbours tell me the thunder has come home, hehe.
