Hi all,
I've had my Ergo for several years now. It started off fine, and then all of a sudden the sound started being distorted. It then went in the cupboard for several years as I thought it was broken. However, I recently got it back out and tried it on a different sound system (Bose Companion). It was connected to this via a single jack lead + two way adaptor to convert to rca leads. This worked fine to my amazement!
I then thought, it must be the RCA (Phono Leads), so I ordered another set. Sadly, I have the same problem with distortion. How can this be if I'm ultimately plugging them in the the same place?
I've gone through the following:
- Two Different laptops;
- Two different AC Receivers;
- Updated Firmware 1.41;
- Updated Drivers.
What is it that's doing this? Tried changing various settings biut not sure if I'm doing it right. Whatever I try (and think I've gone through most of them now), I still can't resolve.
Please help. Getting old and missing my younger feeling music now.
Paul
Hey Paul,
I'm not sure what you mean by a "single jack lead + two way adaptor"? Do you mean you ran a single RCA cable and then split it?
If the laptops you were using were Windows-based, try disabling the Intel Turbo Boost following the instructions here.

Hi. Thanks for responding. I don't know how to explain other than it has two Jack connectors I'm afraid. If it helps it was a Bose Companion 3, so its the lead which that uses. I literally then plug the jack into a phono lead splitter that goes into the phono points of the Ergo.
Does that help?
I will also try what you have suggested above.
