It happens with multiple discs.
Worse on some than others, but I've not been able to play a CD without the intermittent and loud static for the last week or so.
I can't replicate it with vinyl. Not difficult at all to replicate with CD. Just insert t another one, and press play. Within 5-10 minutes of listening or less, you hear it. Then it goes away, usually recurs at random.
I suppose it could be in the CD section of the amp, which is old but has given very good service over the years. I could drag the Marantz up to work, swap it out with my Sony and see if the problem occurs at work, goes away at home.
Sad part is, the Marantz otherwise punches past its weight, sounds pretty darn good. Since 1988, I've had Denon, Luxman, Sony (non-ES) and this one. Until it started (presumably) acting up, it was as good as any I've owned, better than most.
