But the other afternoon I noticed my Dolby system was making a really unusual sound, it was like an odd interference, which to my ear at a distance sounded like a crackle, it was coming from the front two speakers, but not the center one. I figured the system just needed an unplug, and reset. So I turned it all off and went away to make a cup of tea, to then come back and turn it all back on. Well clearly this action made it worse as now the two rear speakers were also making a really unusual sound, but this time rather than switching it off I decided to turn it up louder than before. I ran a few test sounds through the system, just simple tones to try and clear it, but they all sounded really distorted, but oddly I could just hear this background noise, it was very faint but I could hear it.
I placed my ear really close to front speakers, and to my shock it actually sounded like a voice, it was like sometimes when I pick up the phone here, it sounds like I have a shared line?, although I don't. I couldn't make out any clear words, but the sense of hearing what I thought was voices actually sent a real chill down my spine.
I was interrupted with the land line phone ringing, and one of the features I have is caller display, yet this time it just said "Call", so I answered it thinking it would be a telephone sales call, but it was nothing. Again because I get so many calls like this I didn't really think anything of it. But it wasn't until I went back to my small office/studio that it just all felt really odd.
When I look back over the last couple of years I try to add up all of the electrical things that have failed, I think I've around 3 laptops, 1 mobile phone, 1 domestic phone, a couple of computer components, a games console, and the list goes on, but they have all failed, and all have been new to moving here, it just seems an awful lot.
