Problems with Parasound AVC 1800


I've bought an used AVC1800. Diring DD/DTS playback there is
a buzzing (not ground AC)sound from all channels except the center that is noticeable on 0dB and over volume.
Parasound sent me a new DSP card. It did not solve the problem. There are also some pops between tracks with the CD
playback. Does anybody have the same problems?
I'm going to ship the unit to Parasound for service.

If noise is coming from your unit send it back. it is probaly the loose solder. This is a known problem with some of thier products. I have many and after they said it could be a ground loop problem they discovered the solder broke off. I have their seperate 1500 pre/pro system with 3 1000a tuner etc. Their customer service is great!! If your unit is slow to volume change remotes.It is not the product. their version of remotes are poor.
