Put .001uF bypass capacators across your input cables at both ends.  You
can solder them inside the jacks on the cables, if you buy the smallest
capacitors that you can find.  Radio Shack components are fine for this.

If this doesn't work, send me some e-mail, and I'll suggest some more
stuff.

You probably keep your neighbors up with your power amps, so you
ought to leave these guys alone.  I used to be one of these 'Pakis',
myself.
