So, I have an RM100 and I love the thing to death. This is why it's particularly bumming me out that I've had a bad string of luck with it. I bought it a 1.5 years ago, and on the first day I set it up, my Deluxe module had a serious crackling/popping sound. It will cut out in volume big time, but then sometimes fill right back in at normal volume and work totally fine. The problem is that the problem is incredibly intermittent. It can go whole weeks of working just fine, but then one day it gets fussy and does the problem again. This is why I didn't bring it right back the very first day, it started acting fine within 20 minutes so I just let it slide (which was stupid). I brought it in to the place I got it from, only to have it not do the problem (which I knew was going to happen because it is in fact so sporadic). I got turned away because there was "no problem" with the module. I recently brought it back in and pushed my case further, and they sent it back to Randall (for $13 of shipping I should add...).
I tried the Deluxe module in all three slots, and it did the problem in all three slots. I tried the other two module in the first slot (where the Deluxe normally sits), and they were both fine in that slot. This led me to the conclusion that it was in fact the module. But then again, when I take it out of the head to bring it in and have it tested out in the store, it never shows the problem. Once again, it's so incredibly sporadic that this doesn't surprise me. Does anyone have any idea what might be going on?
Almost more importantly is that since removing the Deluxe module and playing the other channels, I've noticed an incredibly high hiss level that was never evident before (with nothing else different). It was like one day my other two modules decided they were going to increase their noise (hiss) level tenfold! It's really frustrating me (having already been frustrated as hell about the Deluxe module - which I'm currently without for 2+ weeks while Randall works things over). What could cause this drastic and sudden increase in the hiss level of my other two channels/modules?
