Right Side of JVC RX-707V Receiver Broken, Makes Muffled Crackling Sound

[willwall]

When I play sound through my JVC RX-707V receiver the left side works perfectly but the right side makes a muffled crackling over the sound. I can still hear the sound I am playing but it is very quiet and sounds terrible through the speaker. I know it's not the wiring to the speaker or the speaker because I have another receiver and it works great through that one. How do I fix this?

Your speaker connection may be loose or your speaker cone is cracked. You can fix the latter by painting the crack with nail polish.

There is nothing wrong with my speaker or the connection to the speaker. I tested the speakers with a different receiver and they work fine.

If the cable & speaker are good, then it has to be the output feed to the receiver. You could have a component failure in the radio. Give Best Buy radio repair a call, tell them the above info & see if they can repair?

Is there any way I could go about fixing it myself?

I had the same problem. There could one or more failed electrolytic power capacitors. Mine leaked
a brown liquid (the electrolyte) that hardened on the circuit board. Replacing several caps that
had leaked restored the power and sound quality. I bought mine from Digikey.
