CRUSH 120H - question

Post by tazpl1 » Wed Jan 11, 2017 6:53 pm

Hi,
I've just bought this one, and i've noticed silent 'bass sound' from the head when it's on (not from speaker, but from head itself). That sound is not loud, it's hearable only when i close my ear to the head.

Is it something wrong? Or it's typical for 120h?

Ps. Sorry for my poor english :)

It is not unusual for amplifier to have a light unamplified hum..... But without hearing it, it's difficult to say if what you hear is normal or not.

Best thing is probably to play your new CR120 loud and a lot. You'll soon be deaf enough that you won't be able to hear it and think everything is fine.

I just popped mine on after reading this, it does it too. Could be the FAT transformer they use in it. Electricity does hum. If you have a laptop power supply and hold the brick part of it to your ear, you will here some sounds coming from it. Same thing going there. My supply brick chirps and whistles :lol:
