Xenon Scratchy X-over Pots??

I'm starting to get a scratchy noise in one of my tweeters. It only happens in the morning and goes away during daytime (odd). Was there a problem with the scratchy x-over pots on the Xenons? I've never heard anyone else complain of it. Or is this yet ANOTHER problem in my RF 3Sixty.3, which is the worst piece of equipment I've ever owned!

I had the exact same problem on my old Soundstream amp. It turned out to be in the crossover configuration switches.
I would start by pushing the config switches on your Xenon in and out a bunch of times and then leave them were you had them and see if the problem improves at all.

its not uncommon for some corrosion to develop in them after time. As eric said most of them can be fixed/cleaned by simply moving the pot/switch from one side to the other a few times. Do it with the power off and just be sure to take note of its location to return it to the same location.
