Yours is a common problem that Panasonic seems to ignore. The humming apparently comes from the speakers built into the system. The only solution that I know of is to install anti-distortion speakers that have solved the problem for others.

However, before spending any money, I suggest you take a look at a website that explores some of the actions of others. CLICK HERE

SOURCE: Panasonic TC-32LX70 buzzing sound from speakers

You may have rerouted your cable too close to a live connection. The magnetic field from the power line is causing interference on the television cable. You will need to either reroute the cable or shield it from the interference. This can be done with a metal covering separating The wires from the cable. It can also be caused by a bad ground connection in the house. The bad ground will allow noise to appear on the ground of the cable and interfering with it. Check to make sure you have a good ground connection on the cable and the power cables connections. I hope this information helps you with your problem.

SOURCE: Got a humming/ buzzing sound

LOL. This is a common, easily solveable problem. Remove your cellphone or anything that emits radiation of any sort from the general area. Don't believe me? send a text message while sitting net to your speakers. It does this even if you arent sending a message because your phone sends intermittent signals to the cell tower. the radiation being emitted from the phone does weird things with the magnets inside the speakers.

Why isthe fan on my new panasonic Genius over the range microwave is noisy NN-SD277

Check to see if the vent is not jamming the motor. It could be something fell into the fan blabes. It could be a noiy motor and this would be a warranty issue.

Why does stereo amp cut out at higher volume

You seem to have the answers to your question. I would just resolder the connections anyway without checking. If it solves the problem you have saved yourself a lot of money. If it doesn't follow the other steps in order of cheapness!

I have a" Nautilus Microtek

The motor is getting worn to the point it will stop soon. Remove the screen and you find the fan/motor directly behind it. You can try to put some machine oil on the motor shaft next to the motor housing. It may quieten it some. Recommend you replace it. Be sure you disconnect power before you do anything else. The motors and fan assembly is small in size and can be bought in Home Depot or an appliance store. If you need assistance in removing the motor/fan and installing new one, please let me know. Those brands are found at Home Depot.

I have a vt50 and it has an extremely loud buzz when I turn it on with nothing plugged in. It sounds like the speaker is going to blow. I don't know what's wrong.

Yes you could blow the speaker. There is either a problem in the power supply or possibly the power amp chip has shorted to one of the power rails. Some of the vox stuff uses th LM3886 chip as the power amp. While these are supposedly protected, they can go bad. Download A schematic that MIGHT be close to your unit... it is for the VT30 but probably is similar:

http://elektrotanya.com/vox_ad15-30vt_sch.pdf/download.html

Scroll down to "Get Manual" and click on it to download the schematic. Do this test: Adjust the power level control. IF it doesn't vary the level significantly, then check the voltage across the speaker... IF it isn't less than 1 volt DC (bias) replace the LM3886 chip. Use thermal grease and any insulators they are using. Chip about $8 from Digikey.com. Note these come with two different pre-bent leads... make sure to get right ones. IF the output bias is with 1 volt DC of ground, check for bad filter caps and rectifiers.

Air Conditioner Compressor Fan Quit

Check the start capacitor. You may be able to see visual deformaty, otherwise, use a meter. The buzzing is most likely the contactors closing which uses a seperate 24v supply..

Frigidaire side-by-side model # FRS26H5ASB4 making humming or buzzing noise

I had the same problem. I found the buzzing noise was caused by ice build up around the fan motor inside the freezer. I believe water must have leaked down around the fan during a defrost cycle. I removed the ice maker, the ice cube bin and ice dispenser auger motor. It sounds complicated, but it isn't too bad. The ice maker and auger are connected with quick connect plugs. So just unplug, remove the screws and remove them from the freezer. You will need to remove several other screws as well, I believe 11 in total as well as the top freezer rack. This will give you access to the white aluminum panel that runs from the top of the freezer to about halfway down the back of the freezer. After you remove the aluminum panel you will see the fan about half way down the freezer. I found a lot of ice around my fan. The fan blades were hitting the ice causing the buzz. Remove the ice and the buzzing is gone. It took me an hour to complete this repair. I hope this helps.

Fan not blowing

Even when the power is off at the unit outside the thermostat will supply power to the contactor of the outside unit. This may give a hum or buzz as you stated. If when the power is on to the outside unit the fan tries to start but only hums the motor may be bad. Does the compressor start and run?
