Hey guys, just got my first old boombox two weeks ago and have been loving it. I'm learning it has a puzzling quirk once in awhile. Sometimes when I flip the power switch up the speakers make a pop and there is a buzzing static sound. The first time I noticed it I had taken it with me for the day and due to its awesome size it had to ride on its side in my passenger seat. (seat belt on of course haha) So I flipped it onto its other side and gave it a light tap and it stopped. I figure its old and something is a little loose. Days pass with no symptoms until the other day when I turn it on and the same thing happens, this time it hasn't been moved for days. I tipped it on the tape deck side, it got louder, I tipped it on the tuner side it went away. Both times I gave it a light tap on the side. The puzzle is, if something is loose why would the buzz be triggered if it hasn't moved. Sorry for the long story but I wanted to be as descriptive as possible. Has anyone encountered something like this? I searched the forum and couldn't come up with anything. My thought is I should open it up and take a look for something loose. It would be easiest to have it powered on when manipulating wires to find which one produces the symptoms, but I'm not sure this is possible or safe. Any suggestions guys? Thanks to all in advance. Oh by the way the sound is amplified if its plugged into the wall.
