CXA 5200 Processor popping noise in atmos speakers.

[Pankake]

Can anyone steer me in the right direction. This is the second Yamaha CXA 5200 I have purchased brand new, When I am watching TV I stream FUBO ,and also have Netflix, and watch You Tube as well. When I am watching TV and it does not happen all the time but I will be watching TV and hear a popping sound come through my speakers, BUT only the right two Front and Back Atmos speakers I have 4 they are the Rsl 34E an excellent speaker. I have also replaced my Monolith 9x Amp so I have a new amp as well. This is driving me crazy I have tested my Atmos speakers Right Front and Right Back or Height what ever you want to call them, and they are fine. The first Yamaha CXA 5200 I took to authorized dealer and he had to replace the HDMI Board, I mean what are the chances I have two Processors with HDMI board issues I am thinking maybe its an electrical issue but my processor is pluged into a furman Elite 20 Pfi power line conditioner surge protector, also the furman is pluged into a dedicated 20 amp circuit. This only happens during TV, when I play music streaming or CD's Or 4K Blu Ray's I have yet to hear a popping. Can anyone help.

This popping sound only occurs with STREAMING (FUBO, NFLX, YT) ?

It could be a setting in the media player.

What are you using as the Media Player? Shields TV Pro?

I don't have a media player I stream fubo.tv and all others with an ethernet cable straight into the ethernet port on the back of My Samsung TV brand new as well. I do have the RS 201E Hifi Rose streamer/DAC but use it just for music with no popping sound same with my Reavon 4K Blu Ray player.

Have you thought about trying a dedicated streamer like a Roku? The TV streamers that are built in aren't as good as a dedicated streamers and can act weird. Since every other media source does not cause this effect I'm thinking it might be coming from your TV

Oh I did not know that, this is something to think about since Roku and others have come down in price. Thank You for your knowledge and help, really appreciate that.

Glad to help as a person that loves audio gear I can't help but be curious what amplifier did you replace the Monolith 9 with?

Yeah, I would try a dedicated media player/streamer like Roku or the $200 NVIDIA Shields TV Pro, which is something that I would get if I were not using my HTPC as a media player.

BTW, @Danzilla31 has the CX-A5200 and I have the CX-A5100.

My CX-A5100 has worked perfectly 100% of the time. But I don't ever use those TV built-in streamer. I've only used my Intel-i9-HTPC and Shields TV Pro.

As @AcuDefTechGuy said I own the A5200 and part of the reason I bought it it it was rock solid. I've never had issues. I would if I were in your shoes buy a streamer the TV ones installed in the TV don't work as well.
