Oh - well I hope that I haven't accidentally caused you any major expense! That wasn't my intention at all. I was simply suggesting some possibilities. Personally I think it's a good idea to get items like this serviced or at least checked over anyway since the Numerik must be quite old by now (1999 was when it finished production). I've had some Linn gear that aged rather quickly due to class A operation and high internal operating tempratures (Linn Aktiv crossover springs to mind). If it was me I'd be looking for DC leakage on the right channel output (the one that caused the "popping". If present it will be really easy to find. However, I am only guessing the problem from a long way away!. If they send it back and say " no fault found" but you still get the popping, I don't know what to say. However, while it is away/before they collect it you could try connecting the SB to the Cyrus via its analogue outputs (removethe Numerik completely) and see if the popping is still there... that would indicate a problem in the amp (unlikely). Do you have anyhting else connected to the Cyrus?
