Buzzing / Humming Sound from Klipsh Sub

Hi Guys,

My KSW200 Subwoofer is giving out a buzzing sound as soon as I power it up. This buzzing sound continues even when it is not connected to the amp so I know that it has nothing to do with the receiver. I tried disconnecting the earth wire on the plug and making it a 2 pin connection instead of a 3 pin one but that is not helping. Any other suggestions?

Use 3 pin to 2 pin cheater plug instead. If the problem persists, use another electical outlet.

Hi F1,

I did that and it has not helped. Instead I think that has blown off my LED so there is no visual indication if the sub is working or not. The only way I get to know it is working is from the Buzzing sound. I am feeling so pissed about this :mad:

I will try powering it using a mains socket in the wall. (I have been using a multiplug point right now). Any other suggestions?

Sorry about what happened. Normally the cheater adapter works to solve humming problem with the subwoofer. Now I have no other idea. You may contact Klipsch for help. Good Luck.
