sounds maybe like a power/clipping issue

armen - try running your cd player rca outs into the sbm1 > dat... see what happens . just use a disc that you know has no crackling issues of its own...

moke - both d8 and sbm were powered by lenmar 2450 mAH AAs and the occasional set of alkalines.
mark - my cd player's RCA outs are fucked. i'll find another source.

ok - the how about a tape output (cassette). anything other than a phono out (which typically requires a preamp stage) will send a signal loud enough for you to test the sbm1...

I've had some similar issues recently:  The right channel is producing an audible HF hum.  The high pitched hum is only in the right channel and not in the left.  I was told to clean the active cables but I'm not sure what's the best way...  any suggestions?

to this end - i had problems with the miniplug that came with the HEB mics (which is why i had leegeddy mod the cables, so now i have dual rca male terminated cables coming out of the miniXLR...

my point is - do not rule out the cables as the source of your problems...
