I am getting buzzing and ticking sounds out of my Hugo. It happens in the right earphone intermittently, it will buzz for around 2 seconds then 5-6 short tics, sometimes it will just be a longer buzz. It happens while the music is playing as well as when it is paused, it even happens with the USB unplugged.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Dave.
Dave,
1. Does it happen when the power supply is both unplugged and plugged in?
2. At what level is the battery charge, happens at full?
3. Does it occur when cycling through all of the various input options? Not just USB?
4. Is crossfeed turned on, and at what level?
5. Does the buzzing change dynamically with the volume level, or stay the same no matter the level? Still at zero volume?
6. Can you verify that the buzzing occurs with nothing connected to Hugo whatsoever except your earphones? What earphones are they and what is the impedance rating? Have you verified that the earphone does not make the sound out of any other equipment?
7. Does it occur out of all the different outputs? Both of the 1/8th, the 1/4, and the RCA?
8. This one may sound weird, but does it go away when you shut the unit off?
That should help narrow it down : )
