Does the electricity interfere with the sound system? Has anyone experienced any buzzing making its way into the amplified sound?

This type of device should not cause any noise in a sound system. Most of these devices provide some filtering so if anything the noise should be lower but these types of devices will not fix many issues with grounds on other pieces of equipment that are plugged into the rack power strip. I would look for a ground problem in your rack or sound system. Most of the time you have a cable that has gone bad. I will be putting two of these into a rack for a large PA and will write a review when I get them installed. Good luck.

Mine is crystal clear.. I had a low freq amplifier type "hum" in my system but that was fixed by using RG58 to carry audio to my subs.. (was picking up interference from A/C power systems in room)

Have not noticed any interference. However, my audio is balanced or digital.

I never noticed it. I kept an iPad, iPhone, multiple halogen-dimmed lights on within two feet of the unit . . then tried them all off, when I was having the static/hum issue. The static only came from the remote: I'm convinced of that. If you keep the system on when NOT using the audio input, you can detect a very low-level, hum from the Cyber Acoustics system being on and, I assume, "waiting." But it's NOT the static and loud hum I was hearing, when I requested a replacement remote pod. That sound was incredibly loud, harsh, and distracting. This circuit hum is almost undetectable but is present, if you're a hyper sensitive type. My AC kicks in (which is quiet) and completely camouflages this circuit hum, as the sound is so faint. There you go....

This is not normal. I have the speakers and they do not buzz when there is no sound output.

I had never noticed a buzzing sound. I just plugged it in and held up up to my ear. I could not hear anything.

Mine has no buzzing. Don't know how to prevent if you have it. I figured I would return to amazon if I ended up up with one that buzzed.

There is no surrounding or electrical noise. You may pick up something if you are directly under a high powered electrical line. Then again, you will here EMI noise w/wo anything on your ears.

interference of some kind or the speaker wires aren't connected correctly, or may be loose. I hooked ours up the way the amp I replaced was hooked up and the Pyle didn't work. Turned out to be much simpler. The second configuration I tried hummed and the sound was staticy. I think I have all 6 of our PAs combined to 1 set of wires and on one speaker connection and it has worked perfectly all summer. Hope that helps.

I've no idea if it's normal, but I doubt it. We just hear the fan, with volume directly relative to speed it's running. Nothing electrical buzzing at all.

Try a magnet to block the buzz sound, especially used in bass speakers, this occurs and what the magnet does is align the electrical pulse and stop the buzz. I have seen things that are half-pipe magnets that will fit over the wires, also ring magnets that you can coil the wires around and thru to get the buzzing to stop.

Hi Gail, no we haven't experienced any interference from other devices. We got it for my mother and it is working really well...she can finally hear the dialogue of the TV programs! The sound is quite clear...

The only noise you should hear is the drive spinning, I wouldn't classify that as a buzzing noise. There really shouldn't be any noticeable noise at all!! I've had for over two years and have used in some rough environments, no issues at all!

i don't have any trouble with them buzzing maybe it is some electronic equipment you have them around try moving them to different locations and see if they still buzz or do you have them plugged in to the right place, the speaker plug itself i mean

No noise at all! According to my fiance, if there is buzzing noise, it may not be properly grounded. We replaced the electric heaters all over the house and we are very pleased!

I noticed it too. When the device is connected via the instrument connection the floating ground will cancel any noise. One must remember, this isn't a professional piece of equipment with layers and layers of MOSFETS, JFETS AND TRANSISTORS To switch on and of the signal. So, even though there is no signal, it's amplifying the hum from the AC transformer as well. In common terms, it needs to be connected to a device to cancel the noise. Even in the ground, or lift phase.

Did you resolve this issue? I have the same problem but in my left speaker. It seems to be the connection since I tried different cables and speakers and still the left speaker makes the buzzing sound.

I too get a low level interference noise from my PC. Ive tried different cables and mixers, some are better than others, but I cannot make it disappear completely because all of my cables ten to "run together" around my desk. That said shielding the signal wires from stray RF is your only option, OR turn them up really LOUD. Just kidding.

Yes, mine makes a buzzing noise when it is charging. It is not very loud, at least in my garage, but I can hear it pretty clearly when I put my ear against the box.
