Hissing speakers when something plugged into FireWire ports

I have a pair of Event TR-8s that are connected to my Powerbook G4 and they emit a very audible hiss (like exagerated tape hiss) when I have something connected to my Powerbook's FireWire ports. As soon as I disconnect the FireWire cable it goes away.

I have an external FireWire HD that hosts some of my sample and audio libraries and need to have connected while I work.

Adam p11a and front ports

Hi!

i am considering of buying the ADAM p11a monitors.
i have mixed on them and i enjoyed it very much. i have noticed one thing that realy bothered me.
the front ports make a flapping noise on bass notes. so when i tried recording bass or tuning a kick drum i got extra high frequencies coming form the bass port that were not part of the sound.
