I have a couple questions about some sounds I'm hearing through my stereo speakers.
1. When I press TV/Video to change my input from my TV to my receiver (to watch a DVD or tape), and before I select the receiver output (DVD or tape), there is a constant low bass sound coming from both of my speakers. Kind of a "brrrrrrrrrrrrrr" rumble. Very deep. The sound gets louder and softer if I adjust the volume. As soon as I select the output source on the receiver, the sound goes away and I can play the DVD or tape (and it sounds great). Is this some kind of interference? The sound only happens in "Video" mode (from TV/Video) before I select the receiver output (watching Tv is also OK). The main reason it worries me is that if I have the volume up when I select TV/Video (or if someone else does it), the "brrrr" sound is extremely loud (and low-bass) and I'm concerned about hurting the speakers. Why is this happening?
2. Question 2 - I can hear a light hissing/static sound through my speakers when I am watching TV (no problems with DVD). It is very light in the backgroud (can hardly notice with other TV sound) - I can hear it best when there is little sound on the TV or when I change stations (between stations when the screen is black and I can't hear other sounds). I am guessing this is normal interference from the TV or cable hookup, and my speakers are just intensifying the interference. Does this sound right?
Thanks for the help!
