Hey there. I am experiencing some issues with one of my monitors (KRK rp5 g2). Ocasionally sound starts breaking up. I can't quite describe it in words but the closest approach would be to compare it when one is plugging a guitar and the amplifier is on. I can't really reproduce how or when this happens as it seems to be random, however, volume MAY trigger it sometimes. Sometimes when I boosted them (to moderately loud levels, but not blasting levels) this problem was triggered. I tried the following:
- different input cables
- different power cables
- different source (home stereo, mp3 player, etc)

The fact that volume seems to trigger it leads me to believe that there is something not properly soldered (perhaps) or some vibration causing something to do a short circuit. When the problem is happening, moving the volume knob doesn't fix the problem

Unfortunately, the monitors are out of warranty and I can't send them to repair as I live in Argentina and we don't have a local KRK representative.
