Hi, also new here.
I have a new Yamaha RX-V683 connected to a TCL 6 series tv. The speakers are Klipsch HD 500's. Yamaha sent me the receiver as a replacement that I had purchased that had the same issue. It was an RX-V683. The issue is, when I pause a streaming movie, or exit out of the channel, I get a popping noise in my speakers. Like a faint crackle. It never occurs when sound is running through the system, only when no sound. I thought perhaps a ground loop issue, but everything is in the same power strip surge protector. Any ideas?
