My Onkyo NR-905 Receiver is making my speakers chirping.


Hi all,
I have own my Onkyo NR-905 receiver for over 5 years now and it is making my speakers chirping after it is on for a few hours.  Is it overheating?  Anybody else had this problem?  Feedback would be great.

The speakers I am running with my Onkyo receiver are Definitive Technology brand.  I already change the guts in one and it is making it again. I believe  it is not the speakers.  Maybe it needs to be updated with the latest firmware?  
Hi Everyone,
I did more research and find out on other forum that Onkyo is known for overheating.  I installed a temporarely fan behind the Onkyo yesterday and that solved the problem. That cooled of the Onkyo and no more chirps.  I have the latest firmware which is 1.08, so it is not the firmware.    These units get so hot that I can even keep my hand on the top of unit for more than 30 seconds.  Gets very hot.   Some have put internal fan in units.  I will just get a fan and adjust the fan to push air from the back and top of the unit.  I Thank You very much for all your feedback.  Much appreciated.
