Inspire 5.1 P5800 Sound problem...

Hello Everyone
I have a Sound problem with my 5.1 speaker system. When I turn it on,(playing music or not)I hear a terrible loud/high background noise, like a constant interferance. It's a very unpleasant sound. The noise come from all satelites speaker(Speacially the center speaker.)
I'm sure that all conections is ok.
Please help me to solve this problem.
PD.: If it's help I have a Compaq Presario SR602LS Desktop PC.

1 Identify which component causes it; plug headphones to your computer to see if that has noise, try all three connections. Then, connect all speaker inputs to a different source, like a mp3-player.
2 If both are noise-free, it has to be some kind of interference. The cables to the satellites are coaxial so they are not likely to be the cause, but the 3,5mm jacks to the sub might be. To find out if they are, try moving your sub around your room to see if the noise changes (both decrease or increase).
3 If the problem cannot be traced to either or 2, it might be a groundloop: that the signal fed from, for instance, your computer, to the ground connection of your electricity-plug is picked up by your speaker set. To check this, try connecting your set to a different electrical group or at least a different plug.
In case 1: if it's the pc, try grounding it if it's not already. If it's the speakerset it will not be so easy to solve.
In case 2: see if you can connect the sub to your pc using coaxial wires (or perhaps even optical, I am not familiar with the set), you might need some 3,5mm-to-RCA-plugs for that, or if you can somehow shield the inputcables by wrapping it in aluminum-foil or anything.

  • Inspire 5.1 5300 sound problem

    Hello,
    My Inspire sound system was working very well until now. Now when i power up i get a constatnt hum on the speakers. This hum is even when the incoming cable from the sound card is disconnected. The lamp of the volume regulator comes on when it is turned - so i assume no fuse is blown. Can anybody help me about this problem.
    Regards

    Hi, I have the very same problem with my creative 4.1 speakers. A loud hum begins the moment i start it. Strangely enough it sometimes plays, and sometimes just plays for about 20-30 sec before it goes back to the hum.
    If you have found the source of the problem, please let me know too... am pretty bugged with this.
    Anyone else who can shed some light on this issue?

  • Creative Inspire 6.1 6600 Sound Problem

    I have a Creative Audigy Audio Processor (WDM) (Audigy 2) and the speakers are Creative Inspire 6.1 6600. The sound goes down when the selector of volumen is between 3 and 4. I need to increase the volume to make it sound again, but it goes down again. What`s going on?

    Does this problem only occur in certain programs? Because I have a similar problem with my sound suddenly dropping without warning. But it only happens when I'm playing music in Windows Media Player. If it does have something to do with the media player then I suspect it could be the "WOW effects plugin." I hope this helps, or at least narrows down your problem.

  • Inspire(M5300) 5.1 sound problems

    Hi all,
    Recently I have bought a new creative 5.1 inspire(M5300) speakers, but have got poor sound clarity. The volume is also very low. I didn't get a high volume with this 5.1. I am getting the the same 2.1 volume with this new speakers.
    Is there any chance for me to increase the speaker sound and sound clarity?
    I am expecting a good answers.
    Thanks in advance
    Regards
    Mahesh.

    Hi Mahesh Inspire 5.1 5300 is one of good speakers. It is 5.1 Dolby concept sepeakres. there is no comparison with 2.1 speakrs. first of allif your are using these speakrs with your existing motherboard's sound card then you cannot get full performance of these speakers.to get full melodius sound effect you please install creative sound card Sound blaster 5.1 or Creative Audigy Value 7.1 ( Recomended) To get good sound effect pls do following 1. Place your subwoofer at the floor not at table top. 2. Adjust bass level at normal level as indicated in its knob.( Center Level) 3. Do not set Bass level at full level. 4. Place all speakres as showen in cataloge available with speakrs. 5. Adjust Graphic equilize or bass trebel in sound card ( if creative sound card installed)

  • Creative Inspire 4.1 4400 Sound problem.

    The volume of the speaker system tends to increase and then decreases with slightest touch of the volume control unit. At other times the volume would jump/change on it's own. I tried disconnecting the speakers and reconnecting my old set of 2-way pc speakers and they work perfectly, thereafter i reconnected the creative speakers but the problem is still there. Does anyone know what the problem could be. I am not a technical person, I just want my speakers to work fine. If it helps my PC system specs are : 1.7 ghz celeron
    Gigabyte P4 Titan 845PE M/board
    256 MB Ram
    Avance AC '97(6 channel) Onboard
    ATi Radeon 9200 28 MB
    Windows XP Home

    The Sound is very nice, but somehow i hear somd kind of "backgroundsound" from the boxes.
    Sorry for my bad englisch im from germany but i try to explain:
    When im on the desktop, i still hear some kind of bssssssssssss "some elektronik sound" out of the boxes. How could this be?
    I only remeber this kind of sound from my old sound systeme, when i turned it "to loud" ,there was some noise.
    But with the 6100, i have no clue how to stop the boxes from "Humming" ?
    When i turn the power on, the wired sound starts, please explain me how i can stop the
    boxes from "talking" ;O) .
    Thx

  • Can't here my center speaker on my Inspire 5.1 p5800

    I got inspire 5.1 p5800 speakers and my sound card is an sound blaster audigy platinum.
    When i do test my center speaker works out find, but when i play music of any audio file type, video of any file type, dvd in 5. mode and games in 5.1 mode I can't here my center speaker.
    If I put the speaker of to my ear I here low volume sound (very low volume).
    Can anyone help

    I found media player that will play the center channel now!If you have it use intervideo dvd 6 as a music player.
    and set it for the 5.1 of course and I like movie surround more than music surround
    one thing i love with p5800 speakers base is that at only 83% max base on sound card turned on and only 50% base on speakers turned on its one heck of a loud base
    its all based on what files are 5.1 and which are not and win dvd platinum can force the upmix to make the center speaker work if the stuff isn't 5.1 .
    like windows media player has 5.1 but doesnt change the play back of things that arn't 5.1
    I dont know why on some dvds on media player you set to 5.1 the center channel doesn't work though.
    But at least as long as your 5.1 mode turned on in intervideo win dvd 6 platinum the file will always play 5.1 even if the file is mono sound.
    another good thiong about intervideo win dvd 6 is that it plays the divx and to me the performance is better than my divx pro....

  • [Athlon64] Sound problem with new speakers, maybe related to soundcard on motherboard!

    I just bought new speakers to my PC, creative Inspire GD580, but no sound are comin from them! they worked, because on the remote u could press test and then a noise came from each speaker (its 5.1) but no sound in windows, (when u log in or out and that kind off stuff) and not when I play music or games. Whats he problem? they are exactly right plugged in in the computer and that kind of tuff sp thats not the problem. I wonder if it has anything to do with my motherboard because the sound card are on it, I dont use any seperatly sound card, I use the one on the motherboard, the motherboard is an MSI K8T NEO2 FIR, K8T800PRO, Socket-939 SATA, GbLAN, ATX, Raid, Firewire, AGP8X (sound exit : VIA VT8237 - 7.1 sorround sound.) Is this my problem? please help!             The Sound card i think its called Realtek AC'97 Audio for Via Audiocontroller, is that bad or good?
    Maybe thet just control the sound, i'm not sure its the sound cards name!

    Okay,
    the old speakers work fine, the new ones don't. So I don't think, that this is an issue of the mainboard.
    Please check if the speakers are really connected the right way. Also check "Audio devices" (sorry, don't know the equivalent in non-german Windows) in Control Panel, if speaker setup corresponds to your hardware. There is also a MSI- or realtek thingy in the control panel, you should have a look at the settings there, too.
    In BIOS there is not much to check. You can only enable or disable the onboard audio device. BIOS Version is shown on startup, it might be necessary to press the [pause] key in order to read the information.

    What sound problem - no sound on anything, no sound on some apps ?
    Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the iPod and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
    Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

  • Desperately need some help!! iTunes/Quicktime/iChat/Sound problems....

    So, yesterday, I was online, on google video, and when I pressed play on the video, there was no sound, but the video worked...the same was true on every video site i checked. My computer volume was at max, and I even tested the speakers to make sure they were on, and they indeed were.
    I thought that was odd...but then the problems really started.....
    After that, I clicked on my iChat icon. It bounced once, and did not open. The same thing happened when I clicked on iTunes. 1 bounce, and then nothing. I checked to make sure all of my iTunes mp3 files were on my computer....they indeed are all still here, bit nothing I can do opens iTunes. I've run disc utilities, and disc repair...according to that, everything is peachy-keen on my computer.....but iChat and iTunes STILL will not open, and there is still no sound on anything.
    Now, i'm leaning towards the archive and install option....or even just backing up what I want to save, wiping the drive, and starting from scratch.....but i'd really like to not have that happen.
    (and, as a side question, if all I want to save are images, several documents, and many mp3 files, would everything be okay if I just backed them up on an external drive, and then loaded them back on to my computer after reinstalling OS X?)
    Sorry about the length of this, but I am at my wit's end, and I have no idea what to do.

    by third-party, do you mean things I installed that are not manufactured by mac? If that is the case, I have microsoft office, Smart Music, Flip4mac, and Senuti.
    I got rid of Flip4Mac to see if that affected my sound problems, but it did not. So, as of now, my problem remains the same...

  • Sound problems on ProBook 6550b, running on Win 7 Pro x32bit..

    I have been getting very similar sound problems on my notebook as posted by most: internal speakers work on original Audio HD drivers, but there is no sound when I connect external speakers or headphones. I up-graded the audio drivers to IDT HD Audio and I get sound coming from external speakers or headphones, but nothing from internal speakers.
    I have tried everything from reporting the problem on public forums, live help, and done this or that, but nothing changes. It's so very clear to me that it has to do with audio drivers, which don't seem to work appropriately to cover all aspects of sound output.
    I also, often, get this loud, weird, irritating noise and a frozen PC when I am playing music with the notebook, while on the internet. The best I do is not to do both at the same time. I have seen similar problems on blogs, but tangible solutions are NOT offered!!!! Please help...

    Audio Switching coudl be due to several reason. if you have tried latest audio drivers and latest Video drivers from hp.com, i suggest you to get audio board replaced for your computer.
    Hope it helps.

  • Any resolution to the sound problem?

    I have been having the same sound problem with my Mid 2010 Mac Pro tower ever since I got it.  I have been in touch with Apple and have been told that they are familiar with the problem, but that they are still working on a fix.  The problem is that I have external speakers, and every time I shut down and then start up again, I have to go to preferences and physically change the sound output to go to the speakers.  I have also been tole that the Mac is supposed to sense the external speakers and go directly to them.
    Is there anybody else out there with this problem, and has been able to resolve it?
    Thank you.

    I have a 2010 Mac Pro and use the stereo line out jack in the back of my machine for my speakers with no problem.  I don't recall any problems setting it up.  But check the Audio MIDI Setup (in your utilities folder) to see if you can set it from there (should be able to).  Not sure why the preference wouldn't stick.  And I don't believe there is automatic detection of an attached sound output device where the sound preference switches to that (unless maybe the front jack which I never use).
