try replacing the input cord between the speakers and the computer. the scratching noise normaly comes from a faulty connector. if that doesnt work you may have dirt or dust in contact with the speakers cones or there is an amplifier issue

myhairsonfir i did the exact saem thing today im gutted! im also in south america (chile) so found your post to be remarkably similar, though if im honest i only just went out and bought the transformer after it did not work.
Have you managed to resolve your problem? did you get a new fuse?
I hope to hear from you.

hi,
Here is what I would do: If you can remove the back, I think I'd do that to take a look see. Don't do it if you will damage the case. If Bose will sell you the parts, you might be able to replace the damaged parts. My guess is they will not sell you the parts directly. I'm also thinking there may be no warranty on this device since you took it from the US market to India. Also, this is probably a difficult repair for the consumer to make.

also find the service center near you:
Why not give them a call and ask for help.
