Hi everyone, I'd be very grateful if someone could give me some advice? I've recently bought my first separates stereo, after many hours of auditioning, and now I have got in home it seems to be a little "poppy" (in a bad way) in that, on high notes in particular, there is a sort of pop that precedes the sound.
The setup in question is a rotel ra-05se (ex-demo) amp, ra-06se CD player with a chord company cobra plus interconnect, then B&W 685 speakers with chord company rumour 2 cable.
Is there something in this setup that could be causing this pop? I suspect the cable - there's great clarity, but the salesman said it was a little bright. If I were going to change the cable does anyone have any suggestions for keeping the clarity while curbing this pop?
The only other though I had was that something might be broken, but I've got no experience to be able to tell. Can anyone help?
Thanks
Mat
