What is that noise eminating from my speakers?!?!?!?

I have a pair of speakers that are plugged into the wall, but not any other device. I plug them into my PC but have not done so for weeks.

6-8 times per hour, and only during the day, this zapping staticey noise comes through the speakers for 2 to 3 seconds and appears to be random (not at exact set intervals). I can't find a relation to anything - like a cell phone, or something metal getting too close to the speaker...

Since they are only plugged in, I hypothesized that perhaps the noise if from uneven electricity supply. As time wore on, I wondered if aliens were trying to make contact. Now I'm contemplating the possibility of Extremely Low Frequency weapons... but, I'm just not interesting enough to be a target for covert government attacks.

What the heck is happening?

    You're guess sounds the most accurate, that the noise is coming from some sort of uneven electrical supply. You can test this by plugging the speakers into a different outlet, into a surge protector, or at a friends house. ;). This sound could also be coming from the aux. plug touching something and creating feedback. If all else fails, and it's bugging you to the point of insanity, JUST GET NEW SPEAKERS!!
