Picking up radio station signal through my speakers

So I recently noticed that my computer speakers are picking up some religious radio station and it is becoming increasingly annoying. It is fairly faint but still noticeable unless I am listening to music at the same time. I have tried repositioning the speakers, moving the cords around but still I continue to hear this radio station. My speakers aren't exactly expensive and high end but they aren't cheap and crappy. They are the logitech x240 speakers. How can I get rid of this? Or am I going to have to buy better speakers? I don't really want to go that route just yet.

I have been having the same problem. I have tried many suggestions in different forums but nothing worked. Today I ran the Abexo free registry cleaner for another issue and surprise, surprise the radio problem in my speakers has stopped. I can only guess that it removed whatever was doing it from my registry. Hope this helps!!!

Try to remove any connection to the computer and connect your speaker to and MP3 player. It would be more likely that the PC has the issue and not the speaker.

Another is to move the speaker wires and the Sub away from any power line and away from a TV/Monitor. Try unplugging the sub power for two days (clearing any voltage reside on the capacitors).

I'm 90 percent sure that the problem comes from the PC, speaker wires and connections, not the speakers or the speaker amplifier.

You can enable the speaker icon back thru Control Panel/Sound. As far as the station pickup, Completely shutdown PC and any unit connected to it. unplug all power cord. for at least a whole day to discharge any charge components.

PS3 is connected to monitor is a specific none office application computer that your speakers is connected to. Aside from its usages, there's really no difference to you PC or Laptop.

As far as the religious station, it's probably low bandwidth signals that carried through your internet connections. So it’s easy to say, a bad combination of equipment can produce such interference. To minimize the interference is to use filters and/or remove the transformers and the unit with battery.

This is why company like Monster created filtered power protection unit.

The problem is not the speakers but the component and designed use with the amplifiers, to cut cost the amplifier have to be simple and not really that filtered.

Try unplugging the audio source and try increasing the volume if you can hear any beside from hiss. Then try to connect an MP3 player then check if the voices still exist.

Most common problem on these occurrences is when audio system is connected to computers. With all the things that computers have; the "Switching Power Supply" is the biggest contributor with this anomaly.

Most poeple don't know that the most crucial component on any electronics is power supply.

To reduce this interference you need to:
Re-locate audio wires away from power line – separate power line from anything else
Use ferrite if possible – it may not fix your problem but one less thing from your check list
Avoid too many tangled wires – use tie wraps for long wires
Use a good UPS if you can but basic UPS is better than nothing - more features like surge, auto voltage and regulator, auto shutdown, power filtering protection, etc of course is better

Know how RFI/EMI works, it'll helps you understand how your electronic devices affect each others.

Hi, I had the same problem you seem to be describing with my edifier speakers. The problem was only noticed when I plugged the speakers to my laptop. When unplugged no noise was heard. Also if I passed the cable near the top of the subbuffer the noise got higher. I found a solution in this page,

The ferrite rings wheren't needed for me, just had to bunch the cables with cable ties to reduce their length. Hope it works for you.

I have an old tv downstairs which is connected to a comcast cable box (analog and now digital/HD). Whether the tv is connected to the box or not, I receive radio stations! I believe I get more than one station at different times but cant swear to it. My computer is upstairs and recently, I have begun receiving radio stations through my "inland"spkers(very inexpensive).
I'm no electrical engr but it seems a lack of shielding coupled with increased electromagnetic amplitude may create this situation. With the TV, it has been going on for well over a year. With the computer, within the last couple of months. Its interesting that so many people have recognized this proplem. Is there a geographic commonality? Physical feature? I'm sure there is a simple explanation.
