Just wondering if this has been seen before....

Seem to have acquired (since installing new surround amp) some background noise when using Sky. Have checked that it is not on Terrestrial - its not....

Takes the form of a synthetic, metallic edge to sounds - a bit like FM multipath noise (seems to go away when the surrounds are really being used - however it is also present in the front L+R spkrs too.

Why it is only present now I do not know - my old Yamaha amp (now have Marantz) never revealed it - maybe its just that much better?? Affects PL and PL-II.

Open to ideas - or maybe I just need visit from Mr Sky.:confused:

I have noticed the same of late on ITVDig too. The top end seems to have a slight harshness to it and the channels are getting a bit mixed up sometimes too (like normal centre channel stuff appearing in a rear etc).

I have recently upgraded to a MXC centre and Sony 1070 amp. My guess is either that my kit is now showing the flaws in digital TV or the cold weather is effecting the sound??
