I replaced the relay in my Kenwood KR-6400 and everything was working fine for a few weeks. Then one day, there was nothing, and the relay didn't click on anymore.
I reflowed the solder joints and made sure there were no cold joints, and it works again now. But now after the relay kicks in, there's a little pop out of the speakers. I thought this was common with cap coupled designs (without a relay) but since this unit does in fact use a relay I am not sure what would be causing it. Is it a sign of a problem or is it okay? I don't remember there being a pop like this before.
