Me again. So I've left it on for a couple days now. Plugged headfones in so I wouldn't hear the noise . Played it today, not a noise at all. Even playing the speakers. So I'll leave it this way for a few more days. Then I'll shut it off. If the noise returns I'll have to send it. Maybe they'll send me a new one cause I don't want one that possibly could go bad and then what. Don't seem like many have one of these.

Ok. I'm back with good news! It's been a week and it's not made a sound. All I did was put my CD/DVD on top and no more noise. NONE!. Even with cans, nothing. So we'll wait and work it.!! Thankx again.

Here's an update. Called for service . Got a number and address to send it. I asked service person if I could just swap it for a new one ,seeing as how it's the least in the list and I really didn't want a repaired one . Things only a year old , and already got a glitch. Most things last a bit longer before any problems but Oh well. I'll probably send it after the holidays. So like I said when I first heard the noise. WTF !!

Well so much for tha A100. Didn't think it would ,ah. Mess up . But that's what it is I guess. So now I'm listening thru a/ an Accurian 5.1 home theater thing I found on someone's front lawn one day . It even got rained on during the week I was looking at it as I drove by. One day I just stopped and got it. Let it dry for 6 months lol. And it WORKS!!!!!. Don't Kno any specs or nothing . Doesn't make a sound

I've had an A100 for more than three years...it works perfectly. Did you throw yours away because it made some noise? It comes with a three year warranty...that's longer than the warranty on most similar products. You have to send the component to Emotiva for repair, after you have talked to them and gotten an RMA. That's normal for all component manufacturers. I have a Yamaha receiver that came with a three year warranty. If something went wrong with that I'd have to do the same thing you have to with your A100. Emotiva's responsibility here is to repair your A100 and return it to you at their expense. The customer pays for shipping it in, the manufacturer repairs it and pays for the return shipping. It's unfortunate when something needs to be repaired, but it happens. Your saga on the forum started months ago, it could have been fixed and returned months ago. What did you do with your A100 that caused you to write "Well so much for that A100. Didn't think it would ,ah. Mess up . But that's what it is I guess." ?

The thing worked great for a time. Used it for 3 hrs a day. Never abused. Then all of a sudden ,boom what's the noise here. Hoped it would go away on its own. But no. So I've called for service. I put it in the boxes. Gonna ship it when Holliday's r done. But, I'm not as enthusiastic about having to. So Ya I'm dissapionted, one yr old.

Ok the a100 is on its way back. The tech said bad pot was the noise problem. Would that also cause the unit to run warmer than usual. It never got even close to how warm it did get for I sent it. Tech said all is good now. Can't wait to try it.

So you're saying pot was involved. Makes sense now.
Just kidding. Hope it comes back good as new.

A100/ update!! So I got it back and have played it loudly mostly . Vol set at just before end. I leave some for a give. So far sooo good. Works nice. Using iPod mini. Ok, on the 4 ohm drivers she,LL warm to 106 degrees. And almost109 when using ohm l. Consistently. If I don't drive it too hard she comes down to a respectable 98.6. So it's cool!!
