Tweeter Static Noise

[HAMP]

I really don’t know which part of the forum to post this.

My situation is hearing the worst tweeter static noise. I actually thought my woofers were blown. I know it sounds crazy to talk about tweeter and they say woofers.

Here is what I noticed:

• Only on one channel so far (DirecTV AMC) and during commercials
  
  
• I did DVR and was able to go back to the same spot of that commercial and hear the problem was still there
  
  
• I noticed with the same commercial, which played later, I did not hear it, only when I rewind to the spot I DVR’ed
  
  
• Its not with just that one commercial, it happened with more then one or two different ones I heard tonight.

I would just ignore the issue, but believe me, it was horrible sounding and I'm sure it was a flucke.

hampton,

you have to first isolate the issue, is it the speaker or receiver, switch the spwaker to the other side, does it happen to the same speaker or on the same channel?

It was the brightest with the left, but it is heard across the front three, and the right is the least of them.

well I was watching walking dead also, and I dont remember any static noise from any commercials. It could be your avr. Ask sandman what happened to his 5008 so that way you have someone to kinda bounce off what youre experiencing.

Is it happening with more then just that show?

Actually it never happen while watching The Walking Dead, it was during The Talking Dead.

I've watched the replay of The Walking Dead, and not a problem.

So weird, I just did it again. I went back to the DVR, played the commercial, and it made that noise.

I played that same commercial that was recorded a little later during the programming and not a problem.

perhaps it was just an isolated incident with your satelite/cable provider??!!!

I'm thinking that too.

I did just switch speakers and the same thing, I'm about switch on the AVR to see what happens.

Only thing that is crazy about it, it does happen to be louder out the left side.

I decided to check the db levels, and that side was calibrated a little louder then the others, and I then matched and the samething.

I also changed the audio field to 'All channel stereo', and I heard that noise with all the tweets but much lower.

again, you could be right with it being an isolated incident, but I am going to mess around to see if I can find something.

I heard some static type noise during the Lincoln commercial in the first break. Is that what you're taking about?

It was the cellphone, I can't think of which brand. It was the one with the check in concert/on bus and she does her own cloths or something. It is mainly when the screen is mostly pink...

I'm so sorry with the bad description.

T-Moble. I must have skipped right over that, so I never heard it. They did replay the Lincoln commercial and I heard the static again.

I've been on another channel, and not a problem, but I'm going to go look for the one you are talking about to see/hear anything.

It was that T-Moble commercial, and I did find the Lincoln one, and I did hear it a little.

From that, I played all of them during that session, and heard a little from each commercial. Not any from the next set of commercials.

Actually I haven't been able to replicate it other then that same spot. It would seem I have wasted time and it must have been a fluke or something else weird.

I've been changing channels looking at commercials

I wanted to figure it out, I guess I'm a little too darn picky about my audio.

I forgot to mention, I did re-do the wire connection on the plugs I am using to see if that was the problem, but its all the same.

Switched the speakers, and heard the samething, and when I switched on the AVR it followed that wire.

It has to be the signal content itself, if it comes intermittently, but is repeatable.

There's not much in a given commercial that's different from the rest of the program material - you'd hear it all the time.

Signal content. Don't drive yourself crazy!

Having worked for a cable company for a few years this could be any part of the cable Box. Hard drive since you are saying its on recordings, Signal processing in the box or output device from the box. My parents had something like this happen and I had them swap out the box and it went away. Or it could be incoming signal. Probably not your equipment.
