Wow, Cam, I agree with you. Nowadays, this should be considered a major design flaw...

It seems that most people are designing equipment to reject the GSM devil now. My older Alesis powered monitors I have on my computer can channel the devil's chatter, but no matter how close I have my phone to my Pioneer receiver it never makes a peep.

I have a tough time believing regular household gadgets can cause this hum. I've had powered subs in my house since the mid 80s. Believe me there are plenty of the listed gadgets here and I've never had a hum problem from such a source.

Not that I haven't had ground loops but certainly not caused by cell phones and such.

I was only speaking in the general case. Most of the time GSM phones are not "talking", only during a call or data transfer. GSM interference has a very distinctive sound, as does a 60 Hz hum; they are both completely different beasts.
