OK, I'm going to flex my AV geek muscles here. Buzzing in speakers usually
means something is not grounded correctly, check your speaker cables for
broken insulation, exposed wires..ect. After that try looking at your plugs,
make sure you're using three-prong plugs when plugging into the wall.
Hope that helps.
