Default Cyrus 2 + PSX - no phono problem

Are you far from Cyrus? See
http://www.cyrusaudio.com/content.asp?ContentID=21
A couple of years ago I managed to drop both units, smashing the fronts. I
took them in to Cyrus and they repaired them and also checked and replaced a
few items. Made them look and sound like new. So impressed I have now bought
their PreX and Monos.
If you live too far away, give them a ring, they have always been very
helpful.

Cyrus 2 and PSX both need to be powered. If you have a Phono card
installed then the Cyrus 2 power is used for the card only (e.g. you will
get tape output without the PSX attached or plugged in.) If, however you
wish to play anything through the speakers, both will need to be
connected via the umbilical and mains powered.


Thanks, that is really helpful... it is the first time I've owned a Cyrus
2 /and/ PSX, so I wasn't sure.

While I'm here, turning the volume knob causes crackling in the speakers -
do you know what would be the easiest way of sorting this?
