Hi all,

I have a brand new NEC 24WMGX3. Image quality is definitely very good and text is perfect. However, it produces a disturbing humming (buzzing if you prefer) noise continuously.
Is it a structural problem (PRAD review reported this issue as well) of the screen or should I ask for a replacement by NEC ?
24WMGX3 owners, what do you think?

thanks
 
I'm awaiting mine to be delivered so can't say BUT I did have a 20wgx2 which hummed fairly loudly. I rang NEC who sent me out a brand new replacement the next day.

I'd give them a ring
 
Very faint sound now that I held my ear against it. Sounds like someone using an electric shaver through a wall.
 
no noise at all? even if you stick your ear on the top right corner, just above the grill?

I've read on this forum that there is a slight noise if you 'stick your ear above the grill'.... but not sure why you'd want to look at the screen in that position ;)
 
sure i don't look at the screen from this position ;-)
The problem is that I ear the noise when in front of the screen at more than 50 cm and it is very high pitched (or treble ?. not sure of the correct english but I'm sure you'll understand). So, after a while, it becomes really painful
 
Definately can't hear anything from in front of the screen, just with my ear over the top right. Probably giving them a ring is best like ttreaders said.
 
sure I will
I was just wondering if any other 24WMGX3 owner experienced a noisy screen and got it replaced with a quiet one...
 
My first one had the noise, but that was after something went pop (very loudly too), NEC replaced it and all is good.
 
Mine has that noise if i don't have sound connected. volume turned down to zero gets rid of all the noise. the speakers are pants anyway.
