X-Men (Pro)
Stern, 2012I picked up a nice Xmen pro this weekend. It works great but has one issue. There is a loud humming/buzzing noise all the time. I believe it is coming from the subwoofer. It definitely is not the backbox speakers. I also checked all the coils and none are energized when they shouldn't be. I tried lightly pulling/moving the subwoofer wires and the noise changed pitch but won't go away. Any suggestions?
Quoted from epotech:check the header isn't a pin or 2 off. Mine was.
Not sure what you mean. If you are talking about the board connectors they are all on correctly.
Quoted from lllvjr:Check the heat sinks on the audio part of the board, if u can't hold ur figures on one of the heat sinks u cooked that amplifier chip

Been on 45 minutes, played every games and heatsinks are still cool.

Ok good then you didn't damage the amp chip on the board, if you did one of those would be cooking...
