Hi!

The audio on my 2002 Boxster is starting to go wrong - the right speaker crackles and then goes off, intermittently, usually when the car is warm.

From what I can guess, this could be a fault in either 1) CDR-220 Head unit 2) M490 Amplifier, or 3) the speakers.

Because it's happening when the car is warm, and only on the right side (left sound remains fine), I'm guessing it's the M490 head unit? Anyone got any ideas how to be sure before I start spending money? :-)

Thanks!

John
