I am hearing the buzzing sound from the new 40inch Samsung LED TV product -UA40D5000PRMXL. Its heard only when I connect to the DTH. Playback from external USB, I dont hear the buzz.

Problem Solved (so far): I bought a Samsung LCD (LN32D450) and it was having buzzing issues until I put the power cable in an entire different socket, and buzzing gone! There is certainly a relation between the power socket you use and the buzzing noise, at least for some people here.

Try as many sockets as possible.

Good luck to everyone else

I have a Samsung LCD LN32D450 HDTV 720p. I bought it few days ago, and I too, hear a ‘buzzing’ sound from near the top right area from back of tv.

LCDs seem to be affected too? any owners with LCD buzzing?

Thanks Morgan and all posters, having experienced the buzzing noise with a Samsung 40″ 6000 series, i have gone thru all the troubleshooting, having identified that is was the PSU board “buzzing”, i have started considering the replacement of the component, that would have probably been a waste of money!!. The reason is really noise in the AC socket (in Europe a 220V) and having gone around the house testing different socket i found that only the one the TV was connected gave the buzzing issue. I purchased a new power strip and rewire all my AV setup to the new socket and problem solved. TV has been running now for over a week and no buzzing noise.

I bought a 55″ LED Samsung at costco in dec 2011.
Worked great for 1 month, then noticed this buzzing coming from the back left of the set near the plug for power connected(presume from power supply). After reading this blog, I figured out what was the cause!!!!! See, the weather finally was cold here in MN. I have an LED motion flood light that turns on more often when it is cold. The light happens to be on the same curcuit as the TV and when it is lit is get the buzz (with TV on or off)…when it is off buzz goes away.
Problem solved….thanks posters.

just bought a new un40d6000 and hours after installation the buzzing began. It stopped for a day and a half after I plugged in my Ethernet cable and installing updates. And just now it began to buzz. I have taken notice to two variables , 1) I’m pretty sure during the day I can’t hear anything its only night time where I can hear it. 2 depending on the amount of color is being displayed the buzzing gets louder. When changing channels ( the one second of black) the buzzing stops. So I don’t know what the he’ll is going on but I’m doing to be another pain in the ass to Samsung untill I get a non buzzing led tv.

I have a UN55B6000VF that is usually very quiet. It does buzz on occasion and I have determined the cause. To say that my neighbours go a little nuts with their Christmas lights is an understatement. You can see this house from space. Every year from the second week of December to new years day my TV buzzes whenever their lights are on. Their lights also wreck havok on the UPS attached to my computer. It would seem that the frequency on the 110v in my house spikes to 62-63hz (according to the display on the UPS) and when this happens my tv buzzes and my UPS on my computer kick into battery mode. it all happens at the same time. It would seem that my samsung tv is sensitive to the change in frequency. I would recommend that if you experience try one of those home theatre power conditioners/filters.

Wow…seems there is certainly a problem with Samsung’s LED/LCD line, which is unfortunate because they are outstanding in just about every other category. I have a 46″ LED, B6500 series and I’ve had my set for just shy of a year now. The buzzing is quite annoying and is very intermittent, sometimes it will fade away, but has been rather consistently distracting me from viewing anything lately. Where to go from here?…Store?…Samsung?…Repair?…Replace?

Same problem here. I bought a 59″ Samsung two days ago and there’s a buzzing that won’t stop coming from the top left of the screen itself. Touching the screen amplifies the noise. I’ve tried everything listed here and nothing is fixing it.

I love the TV and I think the picture is amazing- but this is annoying and probably not healthy for the tv…

FYI to you guys but Samsung isn’t the only one and there’s not much info on buzzing unless people are using the built in speakers which is blasphemy (I am not). My Sony KDL55EX720 is doing the same thing as Markus said earlier in this discussion; the buzz seems to go off based on the current picture displayed only my problem is even when the TV is completely off it still makes the noise. Only time it doesn’t is when you unplug it and I haven’t owned it for less than a month. Contacted Sony and they had me unplug the TV for 60 seconds then plug it from a power strip into the wall outlet which didn’t fix anything. Now they want me to contact customer service for repair so I’ll be holding on for that ride!

Wanted to also mention I got this TV after I just purchased a Panasonic Viera 55″ ST30 which developed a thin black line running horizontal about 4-6in from the bottom of the screen. Contacted Panasonic and they wanted to send out a tech but I was about to run out of my 30-day return policy so I just took it back and purchased this Sony but I guess that was a mistake. Supposedly both good companies and I’ve officially tried a plasma and now a edge lit LED both having nasty issues within 30-days. My old Sharp Aquos LCD never gave me this BS what the hell? Just a FYI since Panasonic is one of the top plasma companies for anyone thinking about converting.
