Hey guys,
I'm having a wierd issue with my speakers (Klipsch Promedia 2.1). They begin to emit a high pitched hum after they've been on for sometime. Its a really annoying like nails on a chalkboard. It is not like static. Heres a couple of things I tried
1) Change power socket - did not work
2) Disconnected the speakers from the computer - hum remains, connected to my phone - hum remains. So I do not think it has anything to do with the computer
Some more details
1) I turn them off overnight and when I use the PC the next day and say watch a stream or any other video, they are fine for about 90-120 minutes before the hum returns
2) If I switch them off and on immediately, the hum comes back.. but if I leave them off for a while, the hum comes back after some usage...almost seems proportional to how long I leave them off.
3) When I switch them off from the on board controls, I can hear a soft clicking sound from them as long as they are hooked into the power.
Any idea where the issue lies? Help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
AJ
