[QUOTE="1200GXman, post: 705334, member: 17884"] let me give more detail.maybe i was fague. when i was searching to find the part that was arcing, thinking it is a cap or resistor making the noise on the circuitry, i finally found the "on" switch arcing inside. i switched it on and off +- 5 to 6 times to see if it would stop. while doing this, i heard the transformer also making the arcing sound. i suspect its because of the switch arching it is not getting a 100% smooth seign wave through it basically causing it to sound like arcing inside aswell. i would think this is not good for the transformer as it is not getting a smooth power supply. eventually the switch stopped arching and the transformer also had a normal very soft hum when i hold my ear 10 to 20mm from the transformer. i listened to music for 30min after this also without noise.
