It's called "motorboating" and is usually a sign of bad capacitors or
solder joints in the preamp or a feedback loop.


Probably an issue relating to manufacture with lead-free solder. May be
a batch issue, or something that needs/needed addressing a factory
processes level.


Yep, by far the 2 most common faults I find with most modern equipment
are crappy joints from lead free solder, and crappy Chinese electrolytic
capacitors.


I note that the people who have no trouble of going to the effort of
making Youtube videos to whinge often don't have the energy to simply
return the itemĀ* for a warranty repair or refund.


Or more likely the warranty has expired.
