    Panasonic TX-P50G20B - loud hum in speakers

    Hi guys

    My Panny TX-P50G20B just tonight started making a loud hum in the
    speaker. The hum is increased when there is more white in the image,
    and decreased as the screen go darker.

    Any thoughts on this? GND issue?

    Thanks,

    Nicholas

      Mute the sound, does the humm continue? These models and others are known for a "buzz" issue which occurs over time due to a design flaw, buzz varying with brightness. If you start hearing it, disconnect the power immediately. You need to fix a problem on the SC board (loose screws) before it fails and causes considerable damage.

            Im still testing the same tv , with no input connected the plasma screen itself makes noise. When i connect it to HDMI the sound almost disappears but is present.

              Hehe nice one with the avatar. And I can see the little transformer in the bottom. So,
              I remove the back panel and check all the screws. They're really tight and nice. I connect
              the HDMI and power, and the hum is gone...except for the slight hzz from the PSU.
              No problem now. Wonderful with come-and-go problems

                If you remove the HDMI input and let it run without any inputs you will get a buzz. The buzz comes from the panel itself like Tom said. Dont think its possible to make it disappear completely.

                  Philips F9217L-50R speakers – build quality impressions and DIY surround repair
                  by momaka
                  More Lo-Fi speakers and another DIY surround repair. The patient this time: a pair of Philips F9217L-50R speakers from a budget Philips rack/component system from the '80's. The system belongs to my brother in-law… or actually his parents. However, they didn't want it when they moved houses and he liked it anyways, so he ended up keeping it. It's a pretty cool-looking vintage system with a wood/veneer cabinet and shelves for records and cassettes. Unfortunately, I didn't get a chance to take a picture of it or get the model #'s (but maybe next time I visit, if anyone is curious?)

                  Philips BDL4221 Speakers too loud
                  by tmcw
                  I figure this is the best place to ask this...

                  Have a Philips BDL4221 monitor, thrown out at work, but it doesn't have the speakers. On the back of the monitor, there are hi-fi speaker connectors, the black and red springy connectors for left and right.

                  I have a couple of speakers from a mini-hifi that I connected up, and while the sound is awesome, it's way too loud, at 0 and 1 there is no sound at all, go to 2 and it's very loud, and it does increase up after that. If I was using it for anything else, I might be able to lower the volume on any other box going into...

                  Panasonic TC-P55ST50 8 blinks then no blinks
                  by Andre Gilbert
                  Hello! yes I know there is already lots of information about this issue. I have a Panasonic TC-P55ST50 that originally displayed an 8-blink error code. Following the troubleshooting flowchart, I ended up replacing the SS board. However, even after replacing it, the issue persists. The TV turns on and stays on without displaying an image, and continuity is confirmed on all connectors. What am I missing here🤔?

                  Logitech R20 speakers - Replacing one of the speakers.
                  by Widget
                  Hi guys,

                  I have a set of Logitech R20 speakers, one of the speakers wasn't working, so I took it apart & there was no continuity or Resistance when probing the Tinsel Wires. Plus looks like the speaker was exposed to liquid as there's rust on the metal speaker frame.

                  Just in case, I removed the other speaker and installed it in place of the damaged speaker to make sure the PCB of the damaged speaker was ok & it seemed to work fine, so it looks like it's just the speaker for now.

                  Printed on the back of the Logitech speaker is;

                  Problem with PANASONIC CF53 laptop after changing BIOS settings
                  by AquaMan Ua
                  Hello. I am asking you for a hint on how to solve the problem with my touchbook Panasonic CF53-2 standart model. After setting up the BIOS, the laptop displays the wrong image until Windows loads. (More precisely, it displays, but distorted, instead of the Panasonic image immediately after turning it on, it displays what is in photo #1 in the attached file) Then the image appears when Windows starts loading and then there are no problems with the screen until the reboot. If you enter the BIOS, just a black screen. If you connect an external screen, the image on it is the same as on the built-in...
