Peavey Vyper X2 - crackling bluetooth question

Post by Guybrush Threepwood » Sat Jan 21, 2023 10:26 am

Hi

I recently bought a Vyper X2 to replace my old Vyper 30w (RIP!). I was attracted by the Bluetooth connectivity. However, when I connect to my iPhone via Bluetooth I get a constant crackling sound, which gets worse when you start streaming music. This happens with my wife's iphone also, but not if I connect my Dell laptop to the amp via bluetooth.

Its making the bluetooth functionality unusable for me. The shop I bought it from suggested a software update?

Is my amp faulty? Should I return it? Any ideas how to fix this? The only other amp I can find with similar spec is the Marshall Code 50....but i'm loyal to Peavey!

Thanks all
