OK, more to report. Strong evidence it's a mechanical issue. I previously had the speaker mounted vertically on a pole. I moved it to the floor in horizontal mode and was unable to reproduce the problem. I'm going to play with it some more after work.

I don't think it's the badge. The sound is much more electronic in nature than comes across in the recording. It's sounds very much like crackling static. I'm going to take the grill off and see if there's anything in there. I've also read some posts about internal cables rattling against the speaker.

Hello all, here is a recording of the crackle. This is a low B5 - it definitely occurs more prominently on the lower notes/chords. This noise comes from the speaker side of the cabinet, not the rear where I presume the fan is.

Nope, it's definitely not mechanical. It sounds like a loose/bad cable. If I hadn't tried several, I'd still think that's what the problem is.

Hello all, a couple of weeks ago I purchased an L2T to use as a monitor and for small acoustic gigs. In general the audio quality is excellent, but there is one major problem that may drive me to abandon the whole line - I have a significant "crackle" that occurs on lower frequencies. I play standard 6 string acoustic and 7 string electric, with a wide range of tones, and I get this crackle consistently when play anything at or lower than A notes/chords. This occurs in either clean acoustic sounds, clean electric, or dirty electric. It occurs when I send the signal through the main input channel from my POD X3 Pro, or when I go in through the channel 1 acoustic channel. I've tried two guitars and a variety of cable options. It looks like similar issues have been reported in the past, so I'm hoping someone has a solution. I'd very much like to keep this speaker, but if this is a design flaw, I'll have to go to another brand.
