I think you just got lucky. Mine is much worse than my old one! I am sorry. This is the fourth MSR that I have had and the first one that does not squeal. I am elated. Kal

Ironically I heard the squealing sound from my black MSR+ that came with my 861v6 for the first time the other night and thought that it was an odd noise. It was the first time I had ever noticed it so I guess you need to either have acute hearing or just get your ears close enough to the remote to hear it.
Now that I have read this thread, I realise I am not alone.

The funny part is that Meridian is so into low noice floor on it`s speakers and so on, but when u sit in the dark the MSR+ will squeal for u - it will make u feel it`s pain. Seems Meridian don`t want u to skip a song or doing anything. Just relax and listen  PerS
