Rogue Cronus Magnum III Shrieking.


Hi,

My Rogue Cronus III started shrieking while on Aux., with tuner on.

Ultra high pitched. Very loud. Tubes do not look blown.

Anyone have experience with this?

Thanks,

Daniel

Is it on both channels or just 1 side?  If it's on only one channel, try swapping the tube sets around with one another to see if the issue follows. 

I had this on a set of tubes once and occasionally it would shriek on warm-up.  Found a bad tube and replaced it.

Tubes,Cap are my first look. but I had a similar situation in my new place when the router (Wi-Fi included) for my internet provider was installed just close to my Tube preamp. Moving it away from the preamp solved the issue, but it shows how susceptible tube gear specifically can be to EM, and how crappy Shaw’s (Shaw is a Canadian internet provider) WI-FI routers are.

Thanks everyone so far.

i did talk to the mfr. they’re not so far from me.

So I think a trip to the home shop is called for.

Did you unplug the tuner?  If it only happens on one input, then what is hooked to it is suspect.  I believe that a tuner input is nothing different than a normal input so all that is upstream of the selector switch is wire.  Not likely to scream.
