low level.
If you are using a surge protector with your PT6021 speaker system, disconnect
and plug the power adapter directly into an AC wall outlet.
Move your cables. Check to ensure they are making a clear connection.
Disconnect your stereo cable from the audio source. If the loud hum goes away,
lower the volume on the audio source.
Adjust the bass level on the wired controller or wireless speaker system remote.
Verify that all cables are connected properly and are making a clear connection.

Because the subwoofer IS NOT magnetically shielded, it may cause distortion
if it is placed too close to your monitor/TV. Move the subwoofer so it’s at least
2 feet from your monitor/TV.
Replace the wireless speaker system remote battery with a CR2025 or
equivalent.
Use a standard Phillips-head screwdriver to tighten the two screws located on
the rear of each set.
