I don't use those, but maybe they are not shielded. The info should be readily available.

using balanced cables is the first step, then make sure they are high quality (shielded, as previously mentioned).

i had the same problem with my Events until i got a better/balanced setup.

Well , as BLM said.. I got XLR as well and it still happens.. maybe I get myself a better pair of XLR's and then try those!

Actually the Radio Signal is pretty silent and only hearable when I turn the volume nearly to the max.

Thanks for your info so far!

i have high quality monster XLR's and still get the issue if i have the cables not running properly. Did you verify that the cables weren't going across power sources? There are other suggestions from this thread... like using ferrite rings, sheilding the inside of the monitor, longer power cords...

u might try googling "radio interference studio monitors". This doesn't seem to be an uncommon problem.
