I have a McIntosh MC2205. It started making a crackling noise in the R channel on power on that lasts for about 20-30 seconds, then is gone. It is most prone to do this when cold. Sometimes it barley (if at all) does it.
Is this likely a capacitor problem, or the relays? Once it warms up, the sound is OK to my ears, but I'll measure it when I get it to the bench. I just want to be prepared for what the problem might be, as it's a long haul to the workshop with a heavy amp.
Thanks
