Not to put an eye out, or anything, but...here's a surprise...that is a
Canadian company.

I just had my R8 in for a checkup(I bought it used recently) and the
receiver
has a pop in the speaker when turning it on.
The tecky says this is normal with all R8's. Is this true? I think not.
He also said the alignment is A1...can I believe him now? !@#$%
Sometime it even emits a short duration and diminishing in volume,
bronx
cheer when turned on.
Anyone experienced this with their set?
Saw your post earlier today on the Yahoo group and I tried mine out and
no pop
here, nor bronx cheer.
Where did you have yours serviced?
