[slim] Squeezebox Classic (SB3) distorts on max. vol.

2010-02-07 Thread bhaagensen

Hi,

my SB3 has recently started to distort really bad when the volume is
turned high up. I have NO idea why. Here are the relevant facts (that I
can think of):

-No transcoding, crossfading etc.
-Distortion occurs on flac and mp3.
-Duet and TP on same network does not do this.
-Started to occur recently.
-Speakers/amp sounds fine if SB3 volume is at e.g. 70 and I turn up the
amp

I tried recording the distortion on my internal laptop mic. Not good.
But I uploaded it anyway. The first 15 sec. showcases the distortion,
the last part, how it should sound.

Advice highly appreciated.

Bjørn

Main hifi: SB3 (soon to replaced by a Touch :) It is on preorder)
Bedroom/Office: Boom
Kitchen: Receiver (soon to be replaced by my SB3 and the SBR to be
stuffed in a box in the attic )
I use a Controller various ir-remotes and a Eee-PC with squeezeplay to
control this

Mnyb: That seems to have done the job. Thanks. I should have thought of
this; seems almost like the unsolvable problems are the best ones,
because those are the ones the infamous 'xilnix'-reset often takes care
of :)

Now lets start a tread over in audiophile on how often one should
refresh the xilink for best sound...
But that would ban me for trolling, I'll pass on that one ;)

This reset also cures the no sound but bar is moving syndrome.
And the hellishly loud burst of noise at full volume syndrome.
