Alarion Posted June 13, 2002 Share Posted June 13, 2002 Well, this is my *third* set of Klipsch speakers. First two sets didn't handle power surge's very well (funny that everything else did both times). Anyhow, I got these from Compusa about a week and half ago after taking back my blown ones (thank god for taps). Now these have a static like noise on any reasonable volume. I know it has absolutely nothing to do with any kind of EQ settings as my old ones sounded perfect. I have also hooked some other speakers up to ensure it wasn't the sound card. As an example, the startup sound for Musicmatch jukebox causes the mid's (and tweeters) to make the kind of static noise you would hear when you mess with the plugs in the back of the speakers. All four satellites have this problem. I really don't want to have to lug these back into Compusa for yet another exchange and I was hoping maybe there was something I could do to fix it. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alarion Posted June 13, 2002 Author Share Posted June 13, 2002 unfortunately I don't have a portable CD player (or anything else I could plug them into) I still have the satellites from my first set, and they give off the same static, but only when hooked up to THIS sub box. Maybe it's something in the box? *shrugs* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salty Codger Posted June 15, 2002 Share Posted June 15, 2002 What type of soundcard? What brand were the other speakers that you tried? Could the other speakers have been digital? ------------------ Andy Faull -- Language is a virus from Outer Space -William S.
