MATH Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Hello all, I come from France. Sorry to my english writting. My problem : My RC3 humms/buzzes when TV is on. I have seen some post on the Klipsch Forum but none answer. My RC3 sits on top of the TV like the Klipsch RC3 manual shows it. I don't think it's a problem of shielding int the TV because I have tried with 2 differents TV (Samsung & Philips) and there is a case in the forum with à SONY TV. My RC3-II Humms and buzzes only when TV is on. It's not a problem of wire because the noise continue when I disconnect my RC3 from the amplifier !!! (It's not a joke). It is not a problem of vibration because the noise continue when I hold the RC 35 next to the TV (5-10 cm) and the RC35 don't touch the TV. But If I move away the RC3 from the TV (from 30cm), this strange noise disappear. I think it'is a magnetic problem. Does somebody have an idea? Somebody can help me (and other people with the same problem) ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRBILL Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Welcome, Math, Your English is fine. The members of this Forum should do so well! Magnetic induction from the "yoke" on the picture tube is causing your problem. You may not be able to place your speaker directly on the TV. Could you perhaps mount it on the wall above the TV?

jzoz01 Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 I had the same issue with my RC3-II as well and to a limited degree with my current RC-7. I have yet to find a solution other than moving it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MATH Posted November 24, 2005 Author Share Posted November 24, 2005 Hi DRBILL, Thank you for your post. What is the "Yoke" on the picture tube ? I think that moving my speaker is the only solution, but I am surprised about this phenomenon. Before buying the RC3, I owned a Celestion C2 that it sat on the TV and I never have had this problem. Bye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRBILL Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 The yoke is a set of coils on the neck of the picture tube that move the electron beam back and forth and up and down to "paint" the picture on the phosphor surface. It produces a fairly strong magnetic field. DRBILL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
