Sorry, i'm confused. So, when you have the ps3 plugged via HDMI and then use a skart device it gives a humming feedback through the speakers? If that's the case then i'm thinking it's likely the TV that is causing it, not the PS3. If you switch the ps3 off at the mains but leave the HDMI plugged in does this feedback still occur?

i use a surge protector with 8 connections, if the playstation is even plugged in (not on) i will get a buzzing sound when watching my cable through the scart. ps3 is connected by hdmi. i will try the ps3 on a seperate connection when i get her off the telly. i dont know much about electric but i think its either earthing or there must be something magnectic

It sounds like your speakers might be playing up, if you mute the tv does the humming still occur?

Have you tried any other HDMI devices? Or switching the PS3 off at the back? If so does the humming continue in these situations?
