More mediocre than I expected

I read the many positive reviews and decided that this was the speaker for me. I read that it didn't get as loud as the others, but the sound was most accurate. Well, I may have gotten a bum copy. Music sounded fine, but when I listened to a person speaking, there was an annoying buzz. I would hold the speaker down over the midrange, and try to reduce the buzz, but it was still annoying. I wouldn't even play it that loud, just loud enough so I could hear it in my car. I tried several sources-- audio books, podcasts, etc, and they all brought that buzz. I finally decided to return the speaker, and amazon respected my wishes and sent me a refund, so I appreciated that. I would have been fine if the speaker had cost like $20, but it was over $180 for me, including tax. So I expected something a little better.
