OK, so the word is out. I know nothing about audio. All the sudden, our subwoofer started buzzing (loudly) and won't shut up til we turn the volume to 0. Is there a setting somewhere on our receiver or some other component that we may have accidentally changed?
thanks

First guess is that a cable is partially unplugged.

Julie,

totally agree with larry here...loose connector is the most common culprit for the buzzzing you describe...

That did the trick. That's what I get for dusting.
thanks

That's nothing. Do you have any idea how many phono styli used to be sold because of the occasional thorough dusting of the turntable?
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.

Julie, don't you have any friends in the local talent??

Please don't tell me that you write for the custom crowd, but buy at the retailers (or worse yet, from the samples that manufacturers send for review) and hook it up yourself.

You probably have the connections to buy at the right pricing based on your contacts, but you should at least hire a local veteran to install, calibrate and service the stuff.

P.S. Let him use the wire, remotes, etc. that he already uses...
