I just bought a QRX-9001, fully restored, from the QRX Restore. It's a beautiful piece of equipment and I'm in love! But it's doing something a little strange.
When I power it up, there a strange flutter/buzz that's mainly coming from the right front speaker. No changing dial positions or inputs make any difference. Even changing speakers to the B outputs didn't change anything. What does affect it is the 4 channel selector buttons. It's not as noticable in CD-4/discrete and very noticeable in SQ. QS is kind of in between.
After playing around with things and emailing with owner Justin, we've both determined it's likely some kind of interference. (I've had it for a month or so and it's only developed in the past week or so, even though nothing has changed around my setup.) I unplugged EVERYTHING nearby; TV, TiVo, Oppo player, phone, lamp, clock, modem. I even moved the receiver over about a foot. Nothing changes.
The only thing I accidentally found was that if I hold my hand in the middle of the left side wooden panel, (not toward the back or front,) it stops.
Does anyone have any thoughts as to 1) what could be causing this and 2) what I can do to stop it? I can't stand next to it and hold my hand near the panel when I want to listen.
Edit. I guess the file is too big to attach. So here is a link if you'd like to hear it.
