Serge_S Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Hi, Today I was trying different sources through a pair of my new ForteII’s and a vintage Sony TA-1130 integrated I picked up on Craigslist. After connecting digital TV box (tuned tothe title channel playing ads) and turning the volume up it made adeafening crackling sound. Could that had damaged the drivers? How does one checkfor damage and that every driver is playing? I played Music Choice and CD’s later on no problem, but could not crank it up to check thoroughly bc of neighbours. Being new to audiophilia am I making too bigof a deal out of this? Thanks Serge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serge_S Posted June 17, 2012 Author Share Posted June 17, 2012 Thanks Maron. The volume was barely up to my normal (low to mid volume) listening level. Not only that, if I recall correctly, both high and low filters on my amp were on. ... The sound was mid to high pitched... Didn't sound like a woofer sound. Any way to check if damage occured?
