Is there a hissing noise in the background when the device is on? (I just got one and trying to determine whether my unit is defective, just got it)

Haven't had any problems , I think you may have a defective unit. Hope this helps

I have never had a hissing noise from my unit. The only sound from my unit is the voice giving me directions.

My power adapter hums when plugged in. Is that what you're hearing? I don't get any sounds from the flosser itself. It's happened since the first day that I owned it. I don't consider it to be a major issue. My solution is to just keep it unplugged when not in use.

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?

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

I have not had that problem. It sounds like a bad power switch or loose connection on the power supply. I would return it and get a replacement if you can. Mine has worked great for several hours of use so far.

In my setup there is no hiss or background buzzing in the background. I can have the volume knob at any volume setting and its dead silent with music off. The hissing and external noise might also be coming from your sound card, if your using onboard sound. I have my emotiva plugged into a Sound blaster Z gaming sound card. Hope this help answer your question.

I am going through the same problem that you have and listen to the same type of music (classical music and folk music) and have been told the same thing. I have a friend who has the same system as me and I used one of his speakers in place of my one malfunctioning one and I don't hear the hiss anymore. I'm in the middle of a troubleshooting argument with their staff right now, and I fear that they would be wasting my time and theirs in insisting it is the amp in the back.

I tried buying balanced cables. But that did not help. I think the hissing is just the self-generated unavoidable noise of the speakers. It does not change at all based on changing the volume or input parameters.

Yes, there is some hiss. I have had a set of these for about six months and have had the wires, power unit and amp replaced but the hiss is still there. Maybe it's because these are powerful speakers and I don't turn up the volume very far (9 oclock on the dial). I'm not satisfied with these at all. I also just bought a set of Altec Lansing FX4021 speakersd and they are much clearer. I'm very satuisfied with them and they were cheaper. You should know that i only use these ProMedia speakers for music - no gaming. Good luck with your decision.

I seldom experience a hissing or crackling. When I do I just scan and the noise goes away. This happens very infrequently to me. I rarely have any problems with hissing. I found out a while back that if you are too close to the TV you may experience a hissing. Just move a little bit away and it will clear up.

As others have suggested, the hiss is coming from something upstream of the speaker. I have two of these speakers and have used them extensively, and they are silent except for the signal coming in. If you are using a mixer or some other input device that requires you to set the level, pay close attention to the procedure for doing so. Improperly set levels can cause noise problems when you turn up the volume to the level you're after.

I haven't had any problems. It works great! It sound like the device it is being connected to is not working. Have you tried connecting to another device? If it doesn't connect then it has a defect.

Assuming that it is charged (not even sure that would cause it) it sound like it is defective, I tried to get mine to do that and it won't. Oh, and mine works just fine, actually pretty impressed for the price.

I am not having this issue; the one I have works fine with no feed back noise. Try exchanging it. Sorry for the delay in responding.

Tried mine last night for the first time, makes so much noise that I had to go back to my old unit. Will try again in a different area and see if that helps

We haven't experienced this issue. Ours it's nice and quiet. It may be a problem with the hook up our something.
