jason str Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 If its out of warranty open it up and see whats buzzing. Maybe its just a capacitor that you can throw a little hot glue on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich_Guy Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 DVI is better than VGA, is that right ? Yes DVI is better than VGA. DVI is digital where as VGA is analog. DVI can be exceptional when connecting a TV display to a computer with the best control of picture adjustment and quality DVI can be better than HDMI. No buzzing or sound coming from my Panasonic plasma display. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichaelandKlipsch Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 My old Kuro definitely would generate some heat too it was a very light buzz that would only occur with a large white screen. My new one doesn’t buzz but it will slightly flicker maybe 1 time out of every 6-7 movies and uually only for a second or two but I only pop on a movie once in a while downstairs in the living room I usually watch tv shows there or just listen to music.

Sancho Panza Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 My 1 year old Panasonic Plasma doubles as a Space Heater; nice now, not so nice in summer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich_Guy Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 My 1 year old Panasonic Plasma doubles as a Space Heater; nice now, not so nice in summer. My Panasonic plasma does not put off any noticeable heat. I just remembered that I once saw something which related plasma buzzing to altitude, the higher the altitude where you live the more likely buzzing problems seem to occur from what I read.

beeker Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Unplug it for as long as possible, a full day would be good. After a day make sure its plugged into a power conditioner and possibly you may resolve some of the issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beeker Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Hmmm...what do you think could cause the buzzing? It could possibly be a leak in the cooling system. If this is the case with an experienced tech its about a $200 total cost fix maybe less Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islander Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I've seen references online to a defective transformer causing a buzzing noise on some units.A few minutes ago, I checked my Panasonic plasma (2011 VT-30, 65") with the sound muted and all windows closed, and it's totally silent.You can feel a bit of heat on your face if you're within two feet of the screen, but in a country where we heat our homes for eight of twelve months in most years any heat is useful.The picture quality is the best I've ever seen on a TV, and when watching shows that show large sweeping vistas, like Hawaii Five-0, I sometimes pause the PVR for a few seconds to enjoy the sight.

CECAA850 Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 The year model after my Kuro, they redesigned it to drop the amount of heat they emitted. Just my luck. That's what I get for being an early adopter. I think I got the first Kuro in the greater Houston area. Luckily, no noise though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
