LNEtubaPLYR Posted November 21, 2001 Share Posted November 21, 2001 Ok, if anyone can help me out and tell me what is wrong it would be great. Today I was up stairs listening to my HT system and the cd player came to a good song....I had a "klipsch urge" and I went down stairs to play the song....well I turned them on and started playing them....A reasonable loud volume. And by the way the song was "This is how you remind me by nickleBack" so anyway im going along picking up some trash and stuff and all of a sudden about 1 minute into the song it hits this really high weird note.....and the speakers crack like a geeerack noise....i very very quickly turned it down and played the part over again (not so loud this time) and it did it again.....im thinking ok? the cd. so i take it back up stairs play it on my ht system and no cracking. what does this mean? I have a pair of industrial la scalas and have not had a problem. except I had to replace a tweeter once. just recently. but other than that they sounded just as great as they always did.....could it be the amp? the mixer? I have them set up in a "dj" set up. i have a carver cube amp and a radio shack SSM-1200 mixer and have never herd this before. are my klipsch ruined? any help would be great.

aab3rd Posted November 21, 2001 Share Posted November 21, 2001 I can not tell you what is wrong, but I have that CD as well and I have never herd that on my system/speakers (KLF-20s). Great song though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mighty Favog Posted November 21, 2001 Share Posted November 21, 2001 Did you happen to feel how hot the amp was? Carver 400's were known to "go up in flames" quite often. I really hope it's not but they do have a track record of doing such things.

LNEtubaPLYR Posted November 22, 2001 Author Share Posted November 22, 2001 thanks for the replys guys. yes I felt the amp and it was perfectly fine......i even used them for the rest of the night.? it was weird because they played absolutly perfect. are there notes or pitchs that the drivers might not be able to produce? so it makes a cracking noise trying to?

JohnA Posted November 22, 2001 Share Posted November 22, 2001 Unless a driver is damaged, no note should make them crackle. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
