I have a Vava Voom portable speaker, no longer available, not even on the manufacturer website any more
It used to sound very good providing you didn't use any of the "enhanced" modes, remarkably heavy for its size, but now it makes an annoying frying/burbling/warbling sound whenever it's playing (it self-mutes when not playing anything).
It has inputs from Bluetooth or 3.5mm jack, not WiFi. It can be powered from 5V USB, 15V barrel jack or internal Li-ion cells. It makes the noise on all power sources, and all input sources.
It spends most of its life on external power, and the batteries eventually died so they've been recently replaced, it was a real pig to open, while I was soldering in the new tagged 18650s, I hoped I might see some dodgy electrolytics that could explain the noise but nothing looked dodgy, some photos of the amp board ...
The various JST-type plugs go to battery protection board and speakers
The ribbon cable goes to the top panel with LEDs, buttons and NFC/BT module.
The red gunge on the two larger capacitors isn't leakage, just some sort of silicone applied to glue them together, I can't see anything worthwhile replacing there, can you?
