After a couple of days i'm starting to hear a popping sound from the sub when playing at low volume. The sub is on stated by the light in the power button, but appears like it's turning on and off. Very annoying sound, so i returned the DB2D, and got refunded.
Very disappointed to read that the issues concerning low power through RCA/stereo still isn't solved a couple of years after beeing put on the marked.
Anyway. I loved the DB2D. Will probably by it again when B&W has solved at least two of the latter issues.
I, too, get the popping noise at low volume but once volume goes up popping is gone.
