Review: Harmonic Precision Caravelle Speaker

DK Design Group X-Dream - wow

Static charge, dry air..PS Audio transport I had did a similar thing. Cured with putting electrical tape on inside bottom of the chassis where some ribbon cables touched the chassis.Tom

How to isolate culprit in buzzing speakers?
If you have your cable or satellite hooked up anywhere in this system disconnect it at the wall before it goes into the first device. The buzz will go away..Then call the provider to install a dc blocking filter.Tom 
Best Isolation HRS? SRA? Zoethecus? Symposium?
