Hello Forum,

I love my HRDIII. However, it has a structural buzz in the cabinet on low notes which I've been reading is quite common. I've discovered the source of the buzz which is the base board of the cabinet. If I put downward pressure on the bottom of the cabinet, the buzz disappears. I think it may be the reverb chamber vibrating against the wood.

Anyone have a clever solution for this. My first idea is to put a thin piece of foam between the reverb chamber and the bottom of the cab.

Many thanks in advance!

Use the old playing card trick. Place progressively more cards into the slot where the suspect boards meet. Until the buzz is gone. Temporary cure, but usually works.


Good luck!
