If you hear hum in your CA speakers without the input to the speakers connected to the PC, then you certainly have a defective speaker system and get your money back.
On the other hand, if you only hear hum with the PC connected try reversing the AC power plug (if the plug isn't polarized) on the speaker power supply. If that doesn't help, changing to a switching power supply will not help.
The hum is caused by a capacitive connection to the AC main flowing through the ground connection of the speaker's sound input cable to the PC.
Try plugging both the PC and the CA speakers into the same power strip(and reverse one or the others AC power plug to see if that helps.
A fairly large wire running from your PC's metal chassis to a ground connection on the speaker would also help, if you think it is worth that extra wiring hassle.
Finally, at the speaker's end, putting a 10-ohm resistor in series with the ground of the cable coming from the PC (in combination with the extra grounding wire) will certainly fix the problem.
