Phantom Volume Fluxuation

Recommended Posts

I own a pair Klipschorns that are about 4 years old using a Yamaha RX-V850 receiver.  A couple days ago I cranked the volume extremely high for about 2 minutes.  Now I have an issue with the volume increasing by itself for short periods of time 5-10 seconds.  I am guessing I damaged the Yamaha while cranking the volume but am reaching out to this community for advice from anyone who has experienced a similar problem?  Is it possible the problem is with the speakers?

When that happens, are you touching the volume control, or are you back at your listening position?  I had a volume control that would increase the SPL suddenly -- by about 10 dB -- when I was adjusting it.  It was dirty.

 

But I think JJK's guess is more probable.
