Klipsch Pro Media 4.1 STATIC


Recommended Posts

My front right speaker was giving me troubles before... you could here faint static when you put your ear up to it... now this morning the 1 speaker is just horrid.

I still got my crappy Sound Card for now(new one will be here sometime next week hopefully)... but anyways WTF is causing this?

It's extremely bad in the one speaker when I turn up the volume... I tried to compensat by turning it down on the computer but it didn't work... anyone have this same problem? I even moved the speaker away by it's self... same thing... it's wire isn't touching any others... seems to be plugged into the sub nice and tight... only thing I'm thinking is the splitter could be causing problems... but I tried it with just 2 front speakers and no splitter and I STILL got static... I'm only posting this because it's REALLY bad in the one speaker this morning. I can't stand it... I'm thinking about taking these back...

I e-mailed Klipsch and was told that I might have a bad set where the sub heats up so bad you get distortion?

Well I wanna be positive since I got a ways to drive and packing to do if I take these back.

The Static seems to be coming from the front right outlet... because I've changed the speaker, the wire, the position, muted everything, adjust volume on the computer, etc. Still the static reamians... it comes and go's though.

Anyways my point... I woke up last morning and this and static was still there while the sub was COLD... so does this mean I don't have the bad set or once it has time to heat up the first time it will always be a little distorted?

I haven't always had this static, and I have noticed the sub gets quite hot.

Anyway I can tell for sure?

Thanks
