I get this humming sound when I connect this to my labtop, even if I am not playing any music, etc.

Are the headphones plugged in to the correct colored jack on your laptop? Usually the blue is "input"; the green is "output"; and the pink is for your "microphone". For speaker and headphone use, you would use the green color jack. Also, you may be getting interference from another electronic source - like a cell phone or stereo or tv close by your computer. Try the speakers in another computer at home or at work if allowed, then if you still get the humming, I would ask to exchange the speakers for new ones.

I do not have this problem. It could be just a manufacturing error. I would just contact the company about this issue as I do not have this problem with my speakers.

My speakers will hum if I have my cell phone charging near them. Do you have other electronic devices near your speakers?

That long whistle sound pops on when power supply is not sufficient. At least from my experience. Try a much lower power draw device on it like a mini Christmas light set and see if the problem persists.

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

I just bought it & have Windows 7. It works fine except it has a hum that I can't get rid of. I've played with the gain button & the mic volume, but it's still there. Any suggestions?

I use it specifically to send TV audio to my sound bar. I haven't detected a hum. However, I normally unplug it when I'm not using it.

Margo - I have owned this toaster for a while and have never heard any type of humming noise. It may or may not be a problem. It could be the elements reacting like some light bulbs do when turned on and will hum. I wouldn't think though that this is normal.

If my house is very quiet and the fan speed is fast, I can hear a very soft hum.

it has a loud hum . I grounded the units directly to the Case of the Computer. It reduced the hum significantly. I replaced both units just last week because these are pretty much junk in my opinion.

I get the same thing. Was considering returning the unit because of the aux input noise.

I just started to notice that mine also makes the little humming sound. Kinda annoying

Not exactly sure where the noise would be coming from. I've had mine for around 2 years and have had no problems. I know a lot about computers. I would check your modem. It may be going bad, and that's what is causing the noise.

you may want to check if the hissing comes from the device base or the power adaptor, make sure the device is off.

There is a very very quiet hum. I cannot hear it unless my put the timer to my ear.

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

I think it's what you're using to connect, it thinks you're connected to a computer. I get this sometimes on other items, do it in your car or use a different USB to AC connector.

A hum that you can hear is normal. If it is loud, something is wrong. If it is noisy without a load connected, I would replace it. Are you sure you have not overloaded it?

Mine also hums but just when setting there, as soon as I turn on the radio on the humming quits. It did hum one time and all I had to do was turn off then back on.
