Hissing sound coming from tweeters


Right now I'm experiencing a hissing noise coming from the tweeters on my Klipsch RF7II's, and can't figure out what is causing the noise. It's almost like a white noise that is there when the amplifiers are powered on and is not affected by changes in volume.

My system consists of an Oppo BDP-83 blu-ray player, Ayre K-5xe preamp, and two Emotiva UPA-1 mono blocks. My cables are Audioquest King Cobra and Audioquest Emeralds. I would greatly appreciate any help resolving this problem. The hissing sound is very annoying. Thanks.

Looks like the amps had been designed with insufficient feedback making them unstable and hiss the tweeters.
