    Crackling Noises

    Right gonna try explain this the best i can :lol:

    When the master volume is turned up on me Amp there's alot of crackling coming thru the speakers - thats when a channel is up on the DJM and when the Master on the Mixer is about 3 or 4.

    I thought maybe it was the Amp so went out and bought another brand new one only for it to happen again when the volumes turned up too much.

    Does anyone know what it could be, basically the Speakers are plugged into the Amp along with the CD Recorder - the Mixer has me CDJ - 2 X Decks and then Speaker / Amp Cables.

    Its probs just summit easy as and in the end it will probs turn out that i dont need another new Amp :lol:


    Cheers

    its probably just becasue you have the amp tunred up to high. It will cause any electical signals/static to be amplified, causing crackling. try turnng it down on your amp, and turning the master on your DJM up. If this doesnt go loud enough, turn the master volume screw thing on the back of your DJM. :up:

    ideally you want it so the mater fader on your DJM is on Full, and your amp is on about 50%.....

    Try cleaning the faders. Sometimes its just dirt that gets caught and causes it crackle

    could be a phono lead which needs replacing. Almost certainly a dirty/loose connection somewhere. might be your speaker cables
