Hi,
I am working with my VS-2480, and recently everytime after I start up the thing the sounds are there but also there is some crackling in every sound that comes out the VS-2480. Is there an explanation for this? After a few minutes it goes away. I'm worried that there will be a time it does not go away.
Hope to hear from you.
Greetings,
Wessel

I guess it's time to replace the capacitors on the main board ....
There's some treads here on the forum about it ...
And a couple of videos on U-tube, for example this one ( VS-2400)

Agreed. It’s cap party time. It’s not a difficult job, but take the time to desolder rather than twisting the old caps off. There are 45 100mfd 6v caps to replace. They are all identified by number. I have a list if you like.
The main board does not have to come out.
PM if you have questions

Thank you for the help. While I'm quite handy, this looks like a lot of work, although I think I can do it.
I am in the middle of a project now so I do I afterwards. Let's hope it keeps go away for a while.
I have a list if you like.

Yes, I would like to have that list.

Would you be so kind as to mail me the list, too? (Or pin it somewhere?) Noticed the crackling for some while now, too... (Sent you a PM)
THX in advance,
aXel

You have a list for caps, and said the main board doesn’t need to come out. Are there step by step instructions, or a video somewhere? I’m in the middle of a project and having to replace the caps!😒
