Double Bass String Buzz

Hi, I am new to the forum, hope some one can help me with this issue

Just put some new string on yesterday and the E string started to buzz when I pluck the string hard. It also buzz when I play with the left hand. I have tried to raise the action and move the bridge (slightly), the buzz persist. Could it be the fingerboard playing up? The string seems to vibrate a little too much..

Any Ideas?
