Speakers hiss when turned all the way down? Is this true of this TV?
525186
I discovered that same hiss when my TV was connected to a DTV converter box, equipped with its own universal remote. I was able to eliminate the hiss by lowering the volume on the TV's remote. I use the converter boxes remote to power on and off the tv as well as change channels and raising and lowering the volume. Note that everytime the tv suffers a power interuption by either being disconnected or power outage, I have to again lower the tv volume (and raise the volume using the converter boxes remote

Hello, Did you ever figure this out? I just bought this TV last night and I'm very happy with it, but I use a surround sound system and have to keep the TV volume on 0. There should be a way to turn the speakers off - right? Thanks for any info.

This tv seems to be susceptible to electrical noise or so. i fixed it with a 3-prong adapter like this one http://rsk.imageg.net/graphics/product_images/pRS1C-2266744w345.jpg I installed in the tv electrical cable and now i don't see the pesky lines.

I dont seem to be having that problem. Make sure you are using an optical cable or HDMI w/A.R., not RCA plugs. Or, if your TV has the ability, shut off the internal speakers.

I'd also like to know, since the sound on this tv is low. If anyone else knows , please reply to both of us

There are audio settings in the menu, I was able to play with those and get good volume. The TV is at another location so I can't help you with specifics now.

That's usually an option within the settings on your tv not the receiver. Might want to browse through some settings and see if it turned off the tv speakers when you connected to your receiver.

Hi Kevin, I have experienced this noise. I bought it brand new and returned and exchanged it and the second television did this as well. You can read my comment on the comments page. Did you resolve this problem? CJ

You are not alone! I own this TV, and it has been a disappointment from day 1. All Samsung models have the same lip-sync issue. My friend owns the 50inch model and the lag issue is just as evident. I don't use the TV speakers at all. This set should be advertised and priced as a monitor.

I have had this unit for almost a year in live application and have not experienced any unusual noise or hiss. I am sure if the gain structure is wrong any unit could have the potential for noise. hope that's what you wanted to hear

The unit does have a hiss sound which is not too noticeable during playback.I tried a few things to alleviate the hiss to no avail.

I have the EXACT same problem. I use them on my laptop but the first thing I noticed was the hiss. I was shockingly disappointing and tried the other headphone outlet but to the same effect. Its just not one bud, but both, so I'm guessing its not like a damage issue.I'm not a sound blaster and usually have my music playing kinda low so the hiss is always noticeable.Right now I'm contacting Sennheiser about the issue.

There is a buzz heard when directly in front of TV at any distance. It is NOT inherent in Plasma technology but specific to this model. To me it is extremely annoying. I heard it during normal programming at normal volumes. It is a design flaw in TV that has not been addressed and it is a total deal breaker for me. Your mileage may very but I'm not listening to that high pitched whiny noise on such an expensive television set.

I am sorry but I have not seen the problem you describe with my flat screen. It does not sound normal for the TV. Good luck.

The best thing to do is to try using a Monster Power Stage 2 (or better) line conditioner. For higher end audio systems, sometimes you get that hiss, so you eliminate the hiss by using a line conditioner. It's definitely worth a try.

Hi i just bought this tv and loved it until I turned down the volume and had the same problem. I am returning it unfortunately but for the price it is a steal :-)

We also have external speakers and, to my knowledge, we did not turn off the TV's speakers. Sometimes I turn on only the TV, just to check the weather, andthe speakers are definitely working. We notice no conflict between our additional speakers in the surround sound system and the Tv speakers.
