Vizio speakers make a buzzing noise

Our Vizio speakers make noise the entire time the t.v. is on. What can we do to fix this problem?

VIZIO VX37L backgroud buzzing noise constatly (audio) increasing as volumne increasing. My knowlege is limited but tried looking at audo conttol setting,(nothing in which I could relate) also I found under advance picture adjustment DNS (noise reduction). it didn't seem to realate to aduio. If audio is fine and new speakers would cure all, I'd be a player. I have a Vizio 47. It also has buzzing noises. Both speakers. Have cable, but no HD cable box --- no box at all just direct hook up to wall.  I have an internet modem with a splitter for the cable but no direct connection to internet and TV.  Buzzing noise stays pretty much the same in volume even when you increase the volume.  I can't find anything in the audio set up to help out.  But seems to definitely be speakers as I turn them off on the audio set up the noise disappears. Of course then all sound turns off.

    I just got mine yesterday and the speakers are doing the exact same thing. Its a buzzing noise but when the volumes off the buzz is off. Does this happen often.

The audio board on your 47" Vizio has gone bad. Replace that board will fix the problem.

SOURCE: Vizio speakers make a buzzing noise

It's not the speakers. I usually hear of this problem when hooked up to an HD cable box. You can adjust the volume on the cable box and also on the TV. I'll bet you don't have this problem when watching a DVD.

If the problem is what I think it is, your HD Cable box is set at a really low volume while your TV is set to a rather high volume. Try setting the TV volume to around one-third, then set the volume on the cable box until it's as loud as you'd ever want to hear it. With the TV at such a high volume, you're actually amplifying any stray electronic signals that the wires might be picking up, and the above solution will fix that.

Good Luck.

Have a Vizio VX37L that when it is turned the

HERE'S THE FIX: I just went through this with my Vizio VX37L. TV is stuck in RGB input. This is the fix.... TV is stuck in RGB input.
(option 1) Power on TV, and press the INPUT button repeatedly and rapidly until you can change to a different input, such as AV.
If that doesn't work, try:
(option 2) With the TV off, press and hold the INPUT button on the side of the TV for about 5 seconds. The TV should power on and the input list will appear. The TV will no longer be locked, and the INPUT button should function properly after that.

Option 2 worked for me!

Vizio Speaker Making a Buzzing Noise

My 32" vizio I bought a week ago does the same things.

Buy an external sound system for the tv. Turn the speakers off in the TV menu. Hook the sound system up to the out speaker hookups on the tv.

You will not only have better found, you will fix the speaker buzz problem.
