Peculiar sound from front speakers

[techgadgets4379]

Hi Guys,

i am using Onkyo S5105 HT system, i hear wierd sound from my front speakers, its sort of hummering sound when ever i play music/movies which is having high bass. I have configured Audssey Equalizer settings. Please i request you ppl to suggest how to get the settings right as this is really irritating.

Check the following:

1. That the speakers cables have been connected with then right polarity.
2. That the system has proper gounding.
3. That the interconnects you are using are shielded properly

Does this happen at all volumes or only when you increase the volume with material that has high bass?
If the system is new, I am sure you can get Onkyo to correct the issue.

Cheers

hi techgadgets!
you do have a sub, right? then what is it about high bass from the front speakers!! try changing the crossover settings, i feel to a higher level, to check whether your fronts were not able to output lower frequencies.
