I have put some plastic insulation between the chase (bottom) and the PCB as soon as i get the units and have no problems at all.

My theory is that because the unit gets fairly hot during use, after some period of use the bottom of the chase gets a little curved towards the inside (closer to the pcb) and start gently touching the pcb. That is the source of the "egg noise".

I have discovered this on a friend unit that started to make that noise, and when you hit the unit it created a "kick sound" on the speakers.

A very easy fix that should hot steer you away from this unit. I find if extremely good value for the money.

Regards


This is interesting (and certainly not a bad idea) though the egg problem is usually associated with the ribbon cables and mine tend not to run hot either. Could it be that when you dissasembled the unit to install the plastic you re-made a bad connection better?


No i just slide the plastic piece under the pcb :-)

I've got 15, none F*cked up so far... I killed one with a stuffed genny outputing 330V and my local TV shop charged £28 to mend the PSU... These are not XTA let alone FDS-366ts but they cost less than a decent curry.. Whatthehell do U expect!
 
PS all mine are newer ones!

Can someone take a picture of the cable in question, and what the problem with it is exactly.

I've got one of these on the Christmas list (I'm still 20 and just starting to get somewhere :P).
I'd like to know so I can go ahead and give it a quick fix.

Norty---Is it possible for you to analise the votes on the last two sections as it definitely appears to have gone pear shaped with some stupid voting since yesterday or even re-start it with the one vote per member limit installed.

I'm trying to work out how we can do this where people can vote more than once but not have the problems we are.  I think maybe if I make 2 polls - 1 for positive responses, 1 for negative, so if you have had more than 1 Ultradrive and you've had both good and bad experiences then you can vote in both - but only once in each.  We'll then get an idea of the numbers of good ones and the range of problems with the bad ones (as I'll have 6 options for the bad ones to play with)

How does that sound?
