Well, let me qualify my response, not unless the 'appliance' you have plugged in to happens to produce a humming sound. For whatever reason that is. LMAO!

It maybe that your TV has it speakers turned off. On my Sharp you have the option to turn the TV speakers off, on one of the menus if you use a sound system. I had to turn them off though I got a weird echo effect when I had the sound bar and the TV's speakers going. Might want to look at your manual to see if that's an option.

I am getting the same thing. It is a buzzing/loud humming noise. Anybody know if this is a defect or if something else can be creating this?

Have you looked for a splitter? I just bought this sound bar. I had a similar issue as the only output from the sound bar is a 3.5 mm headphone jack type cord. I searched on Amazon and found a splitter.....3.55 mm to RCA cable....look for a splitter.... I hope this helps.......Steve

Not sure what sound you're experiencing, but it should be very quiet. There is a vague electrical hum if you were to get right up next to it, but that should be it.

I have not heard any humming over the speakers. I'm pretty happy with my purchase and I have a Bose Cinemate surround system.

Could be cable / power point issue..the XLR cable will cut off the hum..( Balanced cable )..

I've had best buy out twice now. The first time to replace all the screws in the back of the tv and that helped for about 1 week and the buzzing or humming sound came back. Best buy came today and replace one of the boards on the tv and i'm hoping this will fix the problem.

It sounds like a low humming. My son uses it every night, all night since I purchased it and still works great, almost a year now since he's had it

You have to adjust both separately. I have found if I turn the sound bar all the way up, then try to adjust it with my tv remote there is a hum in the speaker at lower volumes.

yeh the problem i'm having and i think the original poster is having is more of electronic beeping type noises rather than static, the static is probably just something to do with your hookup to the tv if it's fine on your computer and camera... but when i play back a video on my camera or computer i hear an annoying faint beeping sounding in the background

Make sure you are watching the lights on the sound bar. It is hard to tell when it is on or off but the lights will blink notifying you of the level of sound. I have disconnected mine for now as the cable company has improved it sound quality or I would look at it and explain it more in depth. Good luck!

I hear no humming associated with this item. I have purchase two of them ( for home & Beach Condo) and have had no problems.

Thank you! I finally solved the hum problem by plugging the iMic into "Line Out" on my amplifier instead of directly into my turntable. The hum disappeared! Hope you got your hum solved, too.Maria

Hi J., make sure that your TV is set to use the SoundBar and not TV speakers. -Vincent

i've never noticed a hum. The red LED is a bit distracting, but I just turn it away from my line of sight. Seems to work just fine overall.Note: I am not an audiophile and don't hear frequencies much above 10 kHz. Sometimes other people hear things that I don't. FYI.
