OK. I just picked up a new amp (Onkyo 830) and 4 new ceiling speakers because my Yamaha amp quit working after six years. I got a new TV, a new blu-ray player, and everything was sounding great. But today, just a couple days after getting it all set up, my subwoofer is making an audible ticking (super fast ticking sound). It's not overly loud, but even with a movie going, if you get near the sub, you can hear it.
Then I noticed the sound on the movie I was watching seemed sorta empty. Then I played some music from Spotify. The music was clean but the sub sounded echo-ish and didn't seem to be hitting hard like it had before (even the night before!)
So what's happening? Have I fried something? Is the sub just going out coincidentally when I set up my new system or did I bork something? Am I just missing a setting? I tried powering the sub off / on and the ticking got a lot slower then sped up again to the fast ticking that's just constantly going now.
Last night we watched Aquaman and it was amazing. A couple nights before that Robin Hood and it was sweet. But now things are sounding . . . OFF. And not being an audio or electronics expert, I'm starting to feel Iike I've gotten in over my head.
Thoughts?
