DTT3500 needs to "warm up"...

[Giuseppe]

Hi guys,
I just signed up to thank you all and to confirm that replacing those three capacitors around the Dolby chip solved the problem, I revived my Creative Inspire 5.1 Digital 5500.

I also replaced the one behind the optical-in port.

In the end, I tested the replaced capacitors and only one was found defective: the 16v 100uF next to the Dolby chip.
I hope this could help someone else.

hi all,

I know its old, but when we are dealing with a bit of kit that is 24 years old!!, its not that old.

@Giuseppe

What was the details of the capacitor behind the optical-in port?

Thanks
