Getting crackling through your speakers caused by a chocolate fountian?
I was running a friends system tonight and in early checks everything was fine. I came in before the event and turned on and I had a crackling/buzzing through one channel. I swapped out everything associated with that channel and it was still there. I didn't have a voltage meter but being in that room many times I have never had trouble with power before. The Videographer who is a friend of mine told me the same thing happened a couple of times to different people he has worked with and suggested it was the chocolate fountian.
I thought he was crazy due to the fact it was in the lobby and on a different circut but after talking to catering and asking them to unplug it for a minute the noise went away. They even let me check the panel to make sure we were on different circuts and we were. Once plugged back in the problem came back
I was running 4 Bose 802s, A Carver PM2 Amp, Furman PC, and Numark dual deck CD/Mixer unit
