Amp makes clapping noise


I had a Peachtree Preamp and Amp that worked perfectly well and recently sold them here. The buyer hears a clapping noise when connecting the amp to his speakers. The preamp or other sources are not connected. I did a FaceTime call and it does happen. Any ideas what the issue could be? He is connecting them to Snell speakers which he says works with his earlier integrated amp. Any input is appreciated.

The amp or the speaker is clapping? There are cables between the units? There are cables from the preamp. I'd make sure EVERYTHING was hooked up, pre amp to amp amp to speakers, and nothing was touching or BACKWARDS.  Then test. Removing ONE cable at a time, and retest, if you don't see something.

Backwards or touching is my guess? Bad cables, jerked loose when pulled and put back into service, on the newer gear.. What did work great may have been manhandled and caused something to pull loose or cause a wire to touch somewhere..

Well what's up OP? Get it solved?  I sure hope it's not a problem. Why would it develop a problem, from being shipped? That would be VERY rare, I would think, well actually, know.. If it's packed right, I've NEVER had a shipping problem, PACKING yes, shipping other than the wrong address or lost, no..

CRAP, that sucks, your a good sport about it, though. All in All, you're better off. Shipping tight is always right... If it moves inside, it's packed WRONG. LOL Peanuts, are an auto refusal at the DOOR.
I see peanuts it send it back... Funny to, I ALWAYS tell the seller too.

I've had them show up here and ALL the delivery guys know, "Refuse, right" They look for me now... NO PEANUTS, Even when shipping peanuts, NO PEANUTS.. No Yoko Ono either... Just sayin'

The truth always works for me.. Ask the guy if he thinks it's fair?
Did YOU offer a no question ask, money back deal? 

Fair questions for fair people.  Feedback works both ways.
Does for me anyways.. Some folks you can't do business with.

Come on you broke the key off in the lock, how is that my fault?...
Ok yea, I've hear it all.. Oh and it was a piece of sh%t to boot.. LOL
