First, the noise itself. It appears to be made up of two components, one is a very clean, even and constant static. The second component is electronics noise from within the empeg, you can here the CPU chirping away and you can hear a burst of noise when the disk is spun up and read.


Okay, I don't think you have anything wrong with your tuner or your empeg. My guess is that you've got this problem. Either that, or some other behind-the-sled wiring problem that's grounding wires that shouldn't be grounded.

The first wire I'd suspect a problem with is the antenna remote turn-on wire coming from the tuner module. Since your problem comes up when the tuner goes hot.
