My new PSW225 is clicking, popping and spluttering. It sounds like something inside is cutting in and out causing the driver to do the same and when it does it gives a pop. I've opened it up and no loose wires. I checked a couple of audio sources and same problem so have isolated that. The one thing I haven't checked is isolating other wireless devices in the vicinity (usb wifi dongle and bluetooth receiver for wireless keyboard). Could they be interfering to this level or do I have a faulty unit?

    Check your cabling outside of the subwoofer. Have you tried changing the channel on the wireless unit?
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    yeah tried a different wireless channel. tried running from my receiver into the LFE input using a coax cable and then tried running my ipod into the L/R RCAs with a different (jack>RCA) cable and same deal (although in the latter case the pops were not audible it was still cutting out)

    moving transmitter away seems to have solved, thanks for your suggestions. kinda annoying i have to run wires all over my room to my wireless transmitter, somewhat defeats the purpose of having a wireless sub :-/
