If its the audio file itself no. If its because of a bad sound card, probably

I had the same issue while using the D5, after asking a technical expert I found that moving the cables out of the opening behind the Mac and routing them down and into the D5 the noise was greatly reduced.

If you're 100% sure it's not the source, then yes. I don't have hum unless I am on high volume but I have had a lot of source hum from my sound card. So check that out before shipping it off.

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.

I don't think I've heard any on mine. If you are hearing the hum while using the RCA jacks then maybe trying unplugging it from USB/have the turntable and speakers on separate outlets. If you are hearing it over USB then maybe just try the same isolation but between the computer and the turntable.

Also, Jeff: Even after all the electrical questions are answered, this still makes a low level hum which might be annoying. Having tightened all the external screws on mine, the hum was far less but could still be heard during the silence between musical tracks or even with very quiet passages.

You need to define background noise. If you mean the music played in the background on some movies and TV shoes that drowns out the speakers voice this device helps but you need to turn the units base down. The procedure to do this is in the user manual. If you are talking about the noise level within and without your home the answer is possibly. You may want to see it working and the Bose website will tell you where you can do this based on your zip.

Lucy, I found the source of my hum. I have Direct TV HD. I found that going into the menu settings/Audio/Sound Effects and turning that option off, I was able to rid myself of the annoying hum. The option has something to do with keeping the audio settings from channel to channel, while it is changing you hear dead air except for the hum. Nice and quit now. Love this receiver! Larry

If you wanted to suppress humming noises you could use Nexus Case Fan Vibration Absorbers - Set of 4Nexus Case Fan Vibration Absorbers - Set of 4

This particular sound at has a background noise issue. It is worth spending a few more dollars to get one with higher reviews.

It produces a low hum. It may not be enough noise if you are in a fairly noisy location, though.

They reduce some of the background noise but not all of it. They are best at reducing regular noises like the hum from air conditioning or air-plane noise. I got them to try and reduce noise from people talking in my office but it didn't really help with that.

The best way to kill this kind of background noise is via software. Most good sound editing software has a noise filter/reduction tool. What you do is allow about 30 seconds of silence before you actually use the mic and start your recording. In editing grab that 30 seconds of silence and use it as the "Noise Print" for noise reduction. What this does is the reduction software will work through youyr recording looking for the noise you gave it and remove it. If the background noise is from a steady source, like a fan this will pull the noise right out.

I have heard from those I talk with on skype that the mic is buzzing a lot, and picks up background noises. It could be that my sound card isn't good enough to handle it, or that some of my settings are wrong (though I have tried to fix it for a while without luck).

I have two pairs and both had a humming sound when plugged into AV receivers. The humming sound was much lower when plugged into the high-end AV receiver.

When using the AUX make sure the volume is up on the device. This helped with my sound.

No. It boosts the sound and as a result it can actually pick up noises like a buzzing sometimes. I wear a noise canceling headset to cut out background noise.

Yes it is, however I don't use it as much because it picks up too much of background noise.
