KRK V6 = computer noise? G5 this may sound strange but, i just bought KRK v6 monitors and replaced my old monitors BUT once i turned them on i hear a faint digital noise being produced which seems to come from my G5 running through my audio card.
Example:
When i load programs up i can hear the compuer through the monitors. Digital pulse, faint static and or squeeling sounds from the hard drive.
i do not believe it's my audio card cause the speakers that i had on it just before do not produce such sounds. Does this sound familiar to anyone?
Did i get a bum pair of KRKs? Is this a problem on my end or do I need to return them for a new pair?

Agreed...your new monitors will show the good and the bad. But you want to hear the bad, so you can fix it!Originally Posted by perfectwave
thanks i think...lol
so any ideas how to resolve this?
the only way it dissapears is if my G5 is turned off... or if i turn off my audio card...
neither sounds like a solution :/
ideas anyone?
the only thing i can think of is that im running my audio card as such:
maudio firewire rca out to rca adapter to a 1/4" / xlr cable...
problem is, that's the only outs my firewire card has...
the krks are definitely better, i had first generation maudio monitors :(
If you're running an RCA out that means you are going unbalanced....this could be the problem.
i have also tried plugging my g5 and audio card power into one outlet and the krk's into another and i still hear the computer somehow...
the audio cables are not even crossing any electrical cables that i can see?
great...lol
the only thing i can think of now is taking out my MIA card from my PC and dropping it into my G5 and run the 1/4" outs...
but, that MIA card is only 20bit i believe :(
actually the mia is 24/96k... will this be better than running my firewire card? will this increase latency though?
ok... so the mia's pci slots don't align with the G5's pci slots :(
i guess this means i need to trade in my firewire card and get a new pci audio card with balanced outs?
