Infinity IRS Betas Make Loud Noise When On


I just recently purchased some used Infinity IRS Betas. With both base towers hooked up to the crossover, the system makes a loud noise when I turn the control unit on. If I unhook the left speaker, then I don't get the noise and the sound is fine, but I hear a low hum. Same thing if I unhook the right speaker. I only hear this loud noise when both speakers are connected. I have checked, double-checked, and triple-checked my connections, and all looks correct according to the manual. Also when I disconnect the servo control unit and play them as full range speakers, they play fine. Does anybody have any idea what could be the cause of the problem?

If one of the AC outlets that your various components are plugged into is wired out of phase; you can experience the same result as the mis-wiring of the bass Management system and towers. An inexpensive tester such as this, can tell you if that's the case: (http://www.amazon.com/Sperry-Instruments-GFI6302-Outlet-Tester/dp/B000RUL2UU/ref=pd_sim_469_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=1GVME041151YJ24Q6J9T&dpID=51mLOd%252BDHqL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_)
