Hello guys, happy new year!!
New year, same problem
I have one soundstream 5 channel with a problem. First was in protection, the problem found on upper welding, now work, but on channel 1-2 have a power-on pop..
I have tried:
- isolated preamp= same pop
- exchanged with channel 3-4 all transistors and capacitors= same pop
This pop don't is always the same, sometimes is little, sometimes more bigger, not damage the speakers, but is udible.
What do you think?

yes, exactly..
i have soldered all vias on the top and the bottom, this has solved protection mode, but not the pop.
i have other lil wonder amplifier, 2 channel and 4 channel but without power on pop...
Soldering top and bottom is only a temporary solution, as it was from the factory.
To make it reliable, solder the top normally then use a short length of wire (or the leg from a new component that you install) to connect to a point on the bottom that's connected to the same trace. Do not solder the bottom pad where there is solder on top. See attached.
Have you found the muting transistor?
Is the pop before the mute delay ends?

yes, i have used this metod
not yet
immediatly when power on, the muting transistors should be work fine, the music start 3-4 sec after power on.
I'd suggest finding the muting transistors to see how bad the noise is before the transistors. It could be that an op-amp (or some other problem) is generating more noise than the muting circuit can stop. A weak ground on the muting transistors may do the same.
You could try disconnecting the signal feeding the noisy channels and removing the muting transistors to see if you still get the pop.

Thank you Perry.
I have tryed, but i don't found traditional muting transistors! This is strange, but not found....
I have checked all voltages, sine wave output, power supply square wave, should be all ok..
I have this problem also without all op-amp (removed)
Exactly, i have find this muting jfet but no found.
Have you CCS type muting similar schematic for example?
Ok, i have found. I have measured voltage on this resistor. Is the same (approximatly) on all 4 channel. 0.01~0.09v without remote input, and when i turn on the amplifier, after 5sec i have 0.6v.
The drive circuit is the same for all channel (central optoisolator)
