Len,

My K3 clicks a bit when it is powered on (and off too). It has been there since the beginning - and has not been dependent on any firmware level.

This is just a case of hearing the electronics become active. Unlike my stereo equipment which mutes the output until all that switching on startup/shutdown is finished.

I actually like to hear those sounds - it tells me that something really is happening. I sit and wonder whether anything is happening with my stereo equipment when I first power it on, and I don't know if the power-on really worked OK until the 10 second timeout.

I have just tried this several times since installing MCU 2.73 and have
noticed some minor clicks in the outboard speaker but none when using
headphones. I really had not noticed this until it was mentioned here. My
Orion does the same thing though.

Hi,
Since installing MCU 2.73. I have noticed that power on is
accompanied by a number of loud, rather unpleasant clicks/clunks
from the speaker.
