Are these noisy when they are on? Do they make a buzzing sound?

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!

There is a hum when it starts then it fades away. I use these in our vacation rental house as a quite alternative heat choice for our visitors. I also use this make in customers houses, our main house and my wife's store. I do not find them noisy.

I have had my unit for more than a year and use it on low most of the time and have had no buzz. just the normal fan noise

No, the buzzing sound is always on, unless you are on mute. I had mine for a couple of months now and it seems to have gotten worse

I have the PN50B650 and no buzz. I have owned the set for about 6 months and have not had any problems. I would try an exchange before giving up on the Sammy. I really like mine.

I have two connected from my PC to speakers. There was no buzzing, however during installation I noticed the sound would dip out (in volume) if I bent the cable in a certain way. Best not to expect a long life time out of these if you're moving them around too much.

No they are moderately loud. They buzz. I don't think they are too loud but you can still hear them.

We use ours in conjunction with a desktop computer, so they seem very quiet by comparison. They're small and plastic so there isn't much to rattle or make much noise. :)

No. They doesn't make any sound. They are good. I am using them from around 15 months. All four are still working.

No. They are very queit speakers in terms of noise. Check your source and make sure your levels aren't causing the noise.

Yes I sleep with them and I have no problem hearing my alarm but I use a clock radio and the buzzing is fairly loud. Honestly the best thing I have ever purchased!

Not a good buy. Only had them for three before they started making a loud buzzing sound that didn't stop. Turned them on and off but but the buzzing was still going.

Did you ever get an answer? Mine appears to be buzzing all the time too - I agree. Extremely annoying.

I can't hear any buzzing from my CFLs. But that might be just my hearing. I see that another answer talked about the lights failing quickly. While I have not had that problem another customer did. The bulbs come with a support phone number and are distributed by Home Depot.

I have these throughout my home as well as tabletop dimmers. I don't hear buzzing from the dimmers themselves but from the dimmed lights, which is normal. The more you dim the more likely you are to hear a buzz from the light, especially if the full wattage is high and you have it dimmed low. This isn't harmful and in fact significantly lengthens the life of incandescent bulbs.

I have heard no noise, buzz, or interference at all on these speakers. They are sitting on my wife's desk a) within 1/2 inch of each side of the 23" LED monitor, and b) within 6 inches of a Dect 6 AT&T wireless telephone handset. I would not be concerned about buzzing issues with these speakers themselves However, your existing setup could have a bad audio cord or some other problem with your signal source (like, for example, some old tube TVs have very bad 60 Hz buzzing in their audio, even coming through their 'earphone' port) and these speakers would not be the cause of that.

I haven't noticed any buzzing at all. It's in a lamp beside couch. I think would notice if it was an issue.

I have never noticed any noise. They hold my paddle board tight and secure on the roof rack and they are easy to use.
