If you have a long run, which most surround wire is, then it will act as an antenna picking up all sorts of junk. I have the same issue, although it is not objectable. I even picked up a radio station once with the system off!

Go to a radio shack and pick up a couple of small ferrite beeds get some that are designed for use of say 5Mhz and above not below 5Mhz. Put these beads at the end of the speaker wires near the amp.
This should absorb the RF without affecting the sound.

My point was to determine if he has the same 'hiss' problem with the speaker cables completely disconnected from the amp. If the hiss goes away, then the chances that shielded cables might help are pretty slim.
