Obvious problems with resistors in this country even though i live in a newbuild? My tronica is less than 3 mths old and is louder than my perc90 :eek: Was bought from a sponsor but i have to contact a 3rd party for advice? whats going on there? then said 3rd party says one thing to me but supplier has NO clue what i'm on about????

P133ed off yes!

IMO i'd check your electricity suppy before purchasing this system, seems it only works if your leccy is bang on the 240v, being in a newbuild i guess thats asking a bit much

are you on about the plug bar rather than the unit itself?

Yes I think thats what he means - mine started doing the same recently.

Takes a while to build up to full crescendo after it is switched on...

the first one I got before they changed the resistors is no probs at all then I needed another one. This time they had changed the resistors and the damn thing buzzed like mad, I took it back to LFS who then gave me another one and this did the same (but not as loud). Again took back to LFS and said can you test the next one before issuing it me, third time lucky this is ok (their is very minor noise but you have to put you ear to it). The new ones also tend to get warm around the usb skt areas as well.

For me I had to take them back as I'm not paying over £100 for something that buzzes more than my return pump!! IMO they need to rethink and change something that doesnt make them buzz.

Huh - go figure - my new plugbar doesn't buzz - the older one has just started to! I agree with you - for me it could become a major bone of contention!
