Hi all,
long time lurker around here but first post.
I purchased a good working Lexicon 224xl reverb some month ago and started to change caps especially on the power supply. Some two month ago I repalced the fan as I could hear the bearing were worn out. I found a Papst 115v fan that was a fit.
Now I do not recall anymore if that is related or if the issue was around before or after but on startup I can hear a loud hum while the unit is doing its diagnostics. As soon as the diagnostics are finished there is a pop, some sorf of fanfare sound which decays after some 2 seconds. After this the unit is working fine, no errors in the diagnostics but an minimal audible hum still just above the noise floor.
I do believe the problem is in the AIN or AOUT board. I would really appreciate if somebody could chime in who has experience with the 224s and may be this is something which does sound familiar to one of you.
Thanks a lot
Tom
