Where Did This Popping Noise Come From??

On top of that, every time I turn the volume up on my Onkyo I hear a little clicking sound with each increase/decrease of the setting. These problems are new to my system and I have never dealt with such things before. Any suggestions would be welcome.

Some quick info on the new setup, I have my audio rack roughly 45 feet (along the walls) away from the TV. Everything is going through the Onkyo and coming out via 45 foot blue jeans HDMI cable to the XBR4. My Emotiva remained in my TV stand and I have those connected via Onkyo pre-outs and 50 foot Monoprice Digital Coaxial Audio Cable. Images can be found in my gallery for a better idea, if needed.

Didn't the Onkyo 805 come complete with the DTS-HD/MA Bomb bug? If you do not have the latest firmware (for the receiver)- you might be experiencing the DTS Bomb.
