Stereo Receiver Crackling Noise

I have an old stereo receiver which I use with a computer for tunes in my shop. A lot of noise and static was always being picked up by the cable, and rather than try shielded cables I decided to just utilize the optical output on the computer. Since the receiver didn't have optical capability, I picked up this converter to do the job. It does a great job, now there's no electrical connection to the computer and the noise is 100% gone.

The best stereo receiver I’ve ever owned! If you want the best, this is it!

This stereo receiver was one of my better online purchases!

Issues with noise and crackling forced me to look for a new Interface and my choice was MOTU M4. Short story - it did resolve the issue which was probably due to the driver on the other interface. But I was even more impressed with smoothness of setup and quality of sound. This interface can drive tough headphones loud. Latency is incredibly small: roundtrip to computer and back (without direct monitoring) was still somewhat acceptable, where other interface was seriously lagging. Nice controls and display. Definitely professional controls and capabilities.

I use it to connect my tape deck to the stereo receiver.

the old one was making crackling noises

I bought the stereo receiver for the price and Sony name

I'd been looking for a stereo receiver to incorporate with my existing sound system and this Tree Receiver fit the bill.

i bought this stereo Receiver to replace my old receiver that i gave to my son i was looking for something that used just two speakers and maybe i could connect my sub woofer to it this was the one i could afford plus sony makes good products so i bought this on and i really like it

This receiver has revitalized my 1980s stereo system by allowing Bluetooth transfer from my Sony Walkman (CD quality) and from an iPhone. When powered the receiver goes into pairing mode--your device remembers this receiver...you are connected. So far there has been no problem with connection or distance from the receiver. As this is my second unit (first attached to another stereo system) I only wish I could rename the unit as it comes up with the same name...only to be identified by the Bluetooth address. If you only have one of these, this will not be an issue. Attachment is simple: connect using RCA supplied cord to your receiver aux input. Having it on a switched plug on the receiver is very convenient. If not, you would have to push the light button to switch it into on mode. It has an auto off after a few minutes of not receiving a signal. It also has an optical connection.
