Eary goings on

[v8 animal]

Ive just been browsing and i started hearing music coming from my PC speakers.
It is faint and comes and goes i reckon it's a foreign radio station i closed the browser and it still there.
What's all that about?
Creepy.

It's possible that it could be someones Ipod FM transmitter, is the music coming through all the time? or just randomly? have you tried unplugging the jack from the PC too?

My Grama's phone use to have music in the background.. You seen white noise

Randomly.
Also disconnected router and still comes through so it's not off the web.

I've got an old set of speakers which do exactly the same thing - always a foreign radio station/music.

What your getting is probably induction, the wiring for the speakers is acting as an aerial. Even though there is no power supply to the speakers the radio waves picked up will generate a tiny current which in turn will provide enough power for the speakers to produce an audible sound.

Solution - buy shielded wiring.

Thanks for your comment.
I have a 5.1 logitech set up using the wiring supplied i had a set of creative speakers before.
Maybe the moral of the story is buy dearer speakers.
