Question Hissing sound with creative kratos s5

[Gld993]

Hey guys!

I bought the creative sound blaster x kratos s5 speakers, but the moment I connected them to my pc they started making a loud hissing sound, even at the lowest volume. I even tried connecting them to my laptop aswell but the same thing happened. Is there any thing I can do about it or are they just faulty?

Thank you!

The web site recommends using RFI filter clamps on your input leads. Make sure you get the correct sizes because the have to fit snuggly to work. Along with tying the wiring together and making round bundles with them to prevent them from becoming radio antennas for RFI

Yes but make sure they are the correct size for your inputs.
