Update on my receiver problem. I tried out both Jack's and Wid's experiments and it is my preamp that's damaged. Looks like I'll have to save up for a new receiver or seperates (I'm looking at the EMO UL series). Once again, thank you guys for your help.

That's true, new speakers, new gear. Can't wait!

Those Emo UL separates look very nice. Looks like the preamp is loaded with features, and not a bad price, too.

At least you did get to the bottom of the problem. I fought for the longest time trying to figure out a problem in my system. It was the same type as yours but it was intermittent. I ended up doing as I had told you to do and found it to be my preamp also. Well now I have a whole new system and things couldn't be better.

Yeah, I can't wait until the ULs hit the market, I'm very curious about how they perform, plus, they are very good looking units.
Wid, I was playing one of my video games earlier (Yeah,I'm 28 and still playing video games every once in a while )
but I had to turn off my receiver, that crackling and fading of volume was just driving me nuts.

That's the point that mine got to before I could figure out what was going on. After a new preamp, amp, cd player, speakers, sub and a lot of other purchases I have a system that I am really pleased with

Hey Charlie,
I ended up swapping with my son, since he's always wanted to try out a Denon. He gave me back my HTR-5280. So far, he's happy and so am I. The only thing he's not so happy about is the user unfriendly Denon interface. I haven't decided if I need one of those newfangled XM Yamahas.
