    A Hissing Polk

    Just a question concerning one of my speakers. I use Polk Audio RT-1000i Loud speakers and was wondering about a suspicious hissing sound that came from it a day ago while watching a movie. I was watching Predator and at the end if you know, theres a huge explosion where the monster blows away half the rain forest..anyways, when the exsplosion is coming to an end the sound goes pretty high pitched and the speakers sounds like its hissing or even a little scratchy...Im hoping theres no damage here since my warrenty expired like a year ago.

    Anyone with a diagnosis?

    Have you tried tweaking your audio settings: Dynamic range, Filters, etc.
    check your speaker wire connections, clean them if you can.
    I have the DTS version of Predator and the Yamaha DSP-A1 and never had that problem.

      Man... I just finished watching it and I'm completely 100% disappointed! Please note that my favorite movie of all time is Aliens. So I'm in favor of liking a movie that has Aliens in it.

      Story line continues from the end of Aliens vs Predator where they show a new hybrid burst out...

      very faint hissing sound from N802
      by glimmer
      Hi all,

      I have acquired a pair of N802 and noticed that there is a very faint hissing sound emitting from the tweeter. You got to place your ear very close to realise that there is a very soft hissing sound. And it happens only to the right speaker but not the left one.

      How to mute ground noise/hissing?
      by AwArEnEsS
      I am connecting my Pc to powered speakers using a 3.5mm to 2 rca + Y splitters. I notice some hissing noise which I expected. While I am listening to music or playing video, it's mostly not noticable.

      While I am playing older games, not a problem but if I start playing a resource-hungry...
