Sound coming from JL Audio F 113


I have had a weird noise coming from my JL Audio sub a few days ago that sounded  almost like white noise, or maybe a wind tunnel.  It continued when I turned the sub off, not stopping until I unplugged the unit.  I plugged it back in and   It has worked fine.   I heard the sound again for a few seconds when I turned it on today.  Anyone have any idea what would cause this.  Could it be a capacitor issue?  I hate the thought of sending it in for repair.

Sounds like some caps going bad. There is a switch on the back to lift the ground as well. I would flip the position of that if you haven’t already and see what that does. Mine has been out of commission for several years. I finally pulled the plate amp and am planning on sending it in for repair. It’s $450 plus shipping.
