Speakers: Growing Hiss, then POP! Also Mobile Clicks :(


Recommended Posts

Having just moved house and set up the computer area, I now have a funny problem.

 

Speakers are the lovely Audio Engine 5

 

Before, the speakers were quite a way away from the desk behind me.  Now I have the monitor in the middle, speakers either side.  I would have put them on a shelf, but the shelves I put up aren't strong enough (the wall isn't that great!).  I guess I could move them on to the shelf but then I'll have a trailing wire, which won't look that nice.  Plus, there's a risk of them falling.

 

So there's two problems:

 

1) Every so often, I hear a growing hiss.  Then all of a sudden, there's a small POP and it's silent.  I don't know if this is an internal thing or what, or if there's something I can do to solve it?  The speakers are plugged into the same PC as before - on-board audio.

 

2) I guess there's nothing I can do about the mobile phone clicks?  I suppose I didn't hear it before because the speakers were about 2m away but now they're less than 1m.  Hmm.

 

Thank you!
