Why do I get a poping sound??

When I switch digital channels on cable or mute or switch from CD to Video1,2,3 on my Rotel 1068 I get a POP sound, light on the panels of my Innersound Eros speakers and ofcourse more pronounced on the bass cone, it is Bi-amped and this is my second unit, Rotel said the heard nothing on my last unit and sent this one brand new.
I know the speakers are 98db efficient but I really dont think this is normal, but after 2 units I wonder if it is something I am just going to have to accept?

I get the same thing on my DirectTV receiver sometimes but I am not sure of the cause.

You lose the digital lock when changing channels. I bet it doesn't pop if you use the analog inputs.

Yup no pop on analog, and I find that this might help you
Maineiac if you bot your box by holding in power button till it resets or unplug it for 2 minutes.

I use a new Sony ES receiver for surround sound only (separate from my two channel setup) and get the same popping noise when selecting different sources, it is business as usual.
