Assuming you have a three way dimmer and a standard switch at the other end
and not two dimmers in series: I've found Lutron dimmers to be silent even
with problematic lamp types like "G" . If you haven't already, try a Diva or
Skylark

I have a 100W globe style bulb attached to a simple 2-way dimmer. The
thing (the bulb) buzzes like crazy on anything other than full on and full
off. You can even see the filament flapping in the inert breeze.

Is there no way to fully remove this buzzing? I know a little about the
higher speed switching techniques involved, and I also know about the wave
deforming that some do. But is there not something foolproof? Seems like
something that should have been solved by now.

Thanks
