Hey kids, it's been awhile since I've been on here, but I know there's no better place for help on ther interwebs, so I thought I'd pose my problem to you all.

The last few days, my speakers have been plagued by static/white noise. Whenever I turn them on, I hear lots of pops and cracks, and it actually gets worse if I try to play music/watch a video. I thought it might be because of the wireless card in the computer (my room is not the one with the router in it, so wired is not really an option). But I tried disabling the card and the problem persisted.

I've also tried moving the speakers around, but still have the same problem. And I have double checked the connections.

The odd thing is that it seems to be only my "front" speakers (I have a 4.1 setup, and an Audigy 2 sound card).

Any thoughts/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
