I have a pair of 8 inch Mackie powered speaker and one has developed a buzz. Nothing seems to eliminate including ground lift. Power supply maybe? _________________ Die with Memories. Not Dreams.

Swap the cables from the source. Does the buzz change to the other speaker?
Does it buzz when nothing is plugged into it?

I had a problem with my Samson (Resolv 6.5a) studio monitors. It turned out I was using a headphone out on my Roland Octa-Capture to drive the monitors. I switched to the correct "line out" and the buzz went away. |

The buzz is there even if I disconnect the input and swap power cords. _________________ Die with Memories. Not Dreams.

I have a pair of Mackie 824s too. Even though they are "magnetically shielded", have you moved anything around in your studio recently? Like put a computer monitor right next to the speaker that is buzzing?
Just fishing...otherwise I guess you have a power supply gone bad in the speaker.
