Hi,· Do you have any radio running on the system?· Since when are you facing this issue?· Do you remember making any changes to the system?· Does this happen whenever you turn on the speakers or whenever you are using any program on the system?· Do you by any chance know what station you are picking up and where it is broadcast from? This phenomenon is known as "radio frequency breakthrough interference". It occurs because the speaker leads are acting as an antenna and picking up the radio wave, converting it to an electrical signal.There is then some kind of nonlinearity which demodulates the radio wave, producing the audio component. This could be, for example, a corroded joint acting like the crystal in a traditional crystal set and rectifying the radio frequency signal, producing an audio frequency signal that makes a sound when it passes through the speaker. I would suggest you to check with different speakers whether the issue persists. Bunching the cables with cable ties to reduce their length will reduce the interference, as will winding each speaker cable around ferrite rings (winding at least 10 to 15 turns around the ferrite ring). The ferrite rings act as RFI filters, making the cables inefficient aerials. This reduces the level of the radio signal on the amplifier wiring. Apart from that, check whether any third party program is running in the background.
