that sound from my speakers

what makes speakers do that honking sound? it mostly seems to happen when the power is on but the music or radio stops for a while. it also seems to happen more with speakers that are a few years old rather than brand-new ones.

i'm not sure how to describe it any better than that, which is why i haven't been able to google up an answer.

so does anyone out there know: (1) what the hell i'm talking about? (2) why that sound happens? and (3) how to make it stop (other than by just cutting the power to the speakers)?
