I haven't had that problem in the nearly two years we've owned ours. However, the light in our volume knob illuminates when it feels like it. TDK says you can pull off the volume knob and fix the light. Maybe the same can be done with your problem. Sounds like you may just have a defective unit. Maybe you should exchange it for a new one. Call me old-fashioned but I pine for the old days before boom boxes (and everything else) were controlled by a computer. The technology was simpler and repairs were much easier.

Ours did that from the start. We send it back and received another one. No problems with the new one. Check your records to see when you purchased it and see if you can send it back. Amazon provided free shipping to return it.

Best bet, send it back and ask for a new one. Mine has worked fine since day one. You deserve for yours to work also. Hope this helps bro.

TDK says there's a wire inside the volume knob which might cause the volume bottom to move on it's own. Could this be your problem? I wouldn't take much movement of the knob to affect the volume.

Ours stopped working correctly in the first month we had it. My son uses it as speakers only...turns up volume through his ipod.

I use the line in function all the time. The first time though... yeah, it was too "hot" but that was before I used the level input on the unit to decrease the input volume. So now it works just fine.

I have not yet posted my full review because I want to continue testing for a couple more nights, but on the first night, the machine twice reduced volume all on its own. So, while it's supposed to be fully capable of playing all night without any reset, there seems to be a glitch in the volume setting, at least on my unit.

No, I didn't resolve it. I tried 3 different ones, and they all had the same noise. Let me know if you end up going with the same model from a different store, I'm interested to see whether this is a problem with Amazon's batch or the entire line. It's too bad everywhere else is so much more expensive than Amazon though...

The unit could be bad. The first i bought was bad, it never had sound. I returned it and the second one works normal.

I own a Samsung HTL56 DLP model and I'm having problems with noises coming from the TV. It sounds like cracking and poping and it happens when it's on but it's really bad when it's turned off. It sounds like its going to explode. Anyone else have this problem? Can anyone tell me what may cause this? It's only 2 years old. Thanks

I just tested this and it appears that even when I turn the volume very low before turning the FOXLV off, when turning it back on it resets to a volume, probably in the middle of the volume range, maybe a bit higher. Hope this helps.

You have the opportunity to set the volume between 0 and 7 when you initialize the unit the first time you use it. I don't know if you have the ability to change that setting once that is done. The manual does not say anything about how to change initial settings after the first use that I can see anyway.

You might have to adjust the volume. Otherwise I have had no problems with it.

I have had mine for several years, and no problems whatsoever. It sounds like yours is defective and you should see about having it exchanged.

Not here. I would unplug it and see if it still happens and if it doesnt, I would assume its something to do with the volume dial.

Oddly, we have the same problem. We have had our Sony for several years, granted, but it has stopped transitioning to the next CD too. I have no answers for you. If it is still under warranty apply to Sony for your answer. Good Luck!

I haven't had that problem, ours goes quite loud. The issue I have is that sometimes when I turn the TV on, there is no sound until I increase the volume, then the sound comes on.

I have had this problem. It has locked up and been unresponsive (although it continued to play music) and it wouldn't turn off when I turned my car off. I also have an issue that I will start my car and no sound will come out of the unit. It will show song information, show the time counting for the song, but no sound. The graphic equalizer is also flat indicating that it isn't processing any sound. I have since replaced the deck and have already started to have issues with no sound. My dealer is trying to work with their Kenwood rep., but so far there has been no news of what the issue is. I have had this problem.

No very often. Like someone else mentioned, it does reset when you change between the audio sources, but its not a big deal. I have had nothing to complain about with mine.

I am not sure why...but it might be the timer. I love the system though. It sounds really good and I do not have any rpoblems with it.

I've had that problem myself but it seems sporadic. It can be frustrating . It almost seems it has a warm up period. After I play music for a while , it seems to stop doing this. I'm not the only one saying this . Some of the people who gave reviews on Amazon have this same problem . So it seems not to be a defect. If it is , there are quite a few defective speakers out there.
