13 Common Audio/Visual Problems Problem: Buzzing Sound In Audio Systems Some inexpensive stereo systems and “boom boxes” emit a buzzing sound from their speakers when operated from the Power Force 50™ inverter , because the power supply in the electronic device does not adequately filter the modified sine wave produced by the inverter .
