What Is happening?! M1570, M1070, M570 from Monoprice THX AAA 887 Too!

Yes. The same exact thing. Here is another example.

Wow that’s pretty bad then. Well I hope you are able to get an easy replacement (or refund if you don’t want to bother anymore)

Maybe try the sp200. That really sucks though. really bad luck.

Is there a way to test without connecting to surge protector? If that is the same common denominator between each unit, it just seems weird to be 3/3 on defective units.

I’ve recently had to replace a surge protector I had for a couple of years. Thought it was fine until I hooked up a PS2 to it and was getting super noisy and terrible picture quality. Once I replaced it, it was fine. Everything else ā€œSEEMEDā€ to work fine on it too…
I personally wouldn’t rule it out as a bad surge protector. 3 in a row is a pretty big coincidence…

I started with leather then suede now back to leather.

Thanks for all the suggestions! I tried it with a different surge protector and it did not work. The surge protector is almost brand new, I bought it like 2 months ago. I have a Topping D70, a Sabaj D5, a Crown 1502 XLS, and a couple of computer thing using it. I had no problems except for the THX stuff.

Right. Even if 1 of every 100 unit is failing (which I imagine is a very high failure rate) that puts the odds of 3 in a row failing at 1 in a million- literally. .000001%

Yeah I suspect there is something else at play here…

I’m sure I’ll go back to leather again soon, but I enjoy the suede much more than I did at first. I’m hoping the rumors are true that 1-2 new pad styles will be released next year. I’d like to see if a new pad would provide more detail than the 2 included because that’s about the only thing I find lacking

1 in a million, eh Andrew? take this one on for size…

7 defective monitors (19" CRT back in 2003) in a row…dif s/n, all the same defect. image would shift and become a rhombus. after the 7th, the company apologized profusely and upgraded me to a 17" LCD at no extra charge.

Well that’s pretty nice of them lol, seems like a significant upgrade. But was the lcd better then the crt lol? Some of the early lcd’s were pretty rough

I felt it was a better upgrade…but LCD’s on the whole back then are a pale shadow to what we have now. TN, slow response time…but I loved how little space it took up my tiny room! :smiley:

Maybe you plugged in those CRTs to a bad surge protector. :stuck_out_tongue::sweat_smile:

I switched to the suede thinking they are better for me but found i like the leather more.

I guess Drop will have enough 789 left over after all the cancellation.

I think they knew what was coming long before we did. That’s why they changed their name. It’s the new business model. ā€œDropā€ all their prices to stay afloat.
