Just bought some audio monitors (Yamaha HS50M) and getting crazy interference coming from.... a combination of my laptop PSU and the HDMI connection to the external monitor !?!?
If i disconnect either the power lead from the laptop (not unplug it from the mains), or remove the HDMI connection lead to the monitor the noise goes away.
The sound is full on electrical interference, not mains hum, can hear changes when doing things on the PC, and it happens as soon as the speakers are turned on, even with NO signal connected to them.
My MBP is also connected up but via mDP>DVI and no problems there, only when I turn on the PC laptop.
The HDMI lead was cheap and I have no idea if it's shielded or not, any chance a triple/5x shielded HDMI lead could fix this ? or is it more to do with the mains adaptor ? Don't want to lay out £20+ to find no difference...
