ric Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 any advise would be welcomed, heres the scoop, when im powering down my B&K amps they power down very slow, and in doing so creates a soft "pop" . everything is wired correctly, and im even using a line conditioner, but still have this "pop". its not over-bearing or anything i was just wondering if there was a trick to not have it go thru this "pop" thing, i wouldnt want to damage my RF7's. any advise?? thanks for the look.....

dstrachan Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 I don't know about your B adn K amps but, my Consonance tube amp does the same thing when starting up and shutting down. I don't believe it is anything to worry about unless it is a noticeable POP! A friend has the same Consonance amp as me and he just re-wired it to p2p wiring and replaced a bunch of parts with better quality stuff (Blackgates etc)and the pop went away. I'm sure there is something you can do if it really bothers you but IMHO, I doubt it will do any harm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
