I had a static-y humbuzz in one channel of my Creative T20 speakers and tried the pull and plug thing to isolate the cause, no luck.
So I bought a "ground loop isolater", a filter-like thing that plugs into the audio out port of the computer w. a male mini end, then plug the speaker into the female end of the device. Works great, cleaned up the noise. Device is an RCA filter, PAC SNI-1/3.5 costs about $10, widely available in electronics sites online. Good luck, Bob Sawtooth G4, Sonnet 1.8 upgrade, 10.4.11 MnDel wrote: >>> there is background noise that shows up in one channel >>> on Final Vinyl (and thus in one of the speakers also).
