Onkyo 875 intermittent noise - Blu-ray Forum

SkullPhyre · 05-07-2008, 06:51 PM

I have had my receiver about 3 months. No problems. I did the DTS-MA bomb update about 2 weeks ago smooth sailing no issues. The last couple of days a weird noise has surfaced sounds like duh duh duh duh dut. Like when a cell phone is close to a pc and it is about to ring. Also my Ipod dock when a ipod is plugged into it the ipod screen light stays on for a couple of hours instead of turning off when it is set in the cradle.

This is my equipment list all hooked up with HDMI except the wii which is connected with composite. ( I don't play it the kids do and they can't tell the difference.)

PS3
X-box 360 w/ HDMI
Motorola Dvr hd cable box Model DCH3416
Wii
POS Sony dvd player DVP-NS700H
Onkyo DS-A2X Ipod dock

It just started doing this and it is random on all sources. Lasts for a few seconds then stops. Any help would be appreciated I sure hope I don't have to send it to Onkyo I will get it back months later.

doubt it's the onkyo.... it's interference...... like you said "cell phone" at least that's what it sounds like...... eventually, whatever is causing it (neighbor's garage door ect) should be exposed, and it'll be obvious to you, but if I had to guess, it's something you're running electronically in your home, so a line-filter may clear up the issue for you.

Not sure if this would help you, sounds like a different issue is going on, but I use this low-cost part to eliminate a very low speaker hum from my 605:

Kinda what I thought it was . I live in a apt so I am not sure what might be interfering. Nothing new has been added recently. I will have to check it out. Thanks guys.
