The easiest way to fix this, is to switch off the speakers before
turning the set on. If you are innovative enough, you an design and
build a relay circuit using a turn on time delay circuit. The speaker
path can be through the relay contacts. This way, when you turn the set
on, the relay can have a 2 or 3 second delay.

I have a Sansui R-7 receiver which works fine except that when the power
is
turned off there is usually a fairly loud click from the speakers. Does
not
seem to be loud enough to harm the speakers, but certainly annoying, and
not
at all what I would consider normal.

This is a low to mid power receiver which I'm guessing is from the late
80's. It is an instant-on unit with no relays. There was a place for a
capacitor accross the power switch, but none was ever installed. I
added a
..01 disc there, but that did not help. Following wires from the line
cord
thru the switch to the power transformer, I do not see any other line
conditioning or surge suppression. I can't believe it always had this
problem. Any ideas as to the cause?

Thanks,
Paul
