    Default "Crackling," "static," similar noise from Cablevision DVR through tweeters

    On some of the more-compressed digital channels there is an audible crackle that comes through the tweeters of my speakers. It's annoying when I key into it but I can normally ignore it. Is this common in our 800-channel world? Also - could it damage/be damaging my speakers?
    Currently listening to:

    Marantz SR5004
    Sony BDP-S370
    Apple TV V2
    Audio Technica AT-LP120
    Mirage CMD-5 x 5
    Bic H-100

    +1... See if you can upgrade or trade it in for one of the DVR boxes, I haven't had a problem since.
