Is there anyway to reduce the static? I tried one of the other adaptors and it had no static, but then couldn't hear everything; music but no words!

It's an older technology that wasn't made to support the current devices we have now. It was better suited for the phones from 2006-2008. You would be better off just getting a different headset. I also found this out the hard way. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

Hi Melissa. I'm not sure about your particular issue. ...I had not problem hearing other things and conversation. ...but other people heard their voice echo back to them. ...to such extreme that they would not talk to me unless I disconnect the device

I've had some similar issues. Is your phone case keeping plug from seating fully? With my HTC Amaze, if the plug isn't seated just right, I get line noise or missing sound. I have the problem if the plug is slightly out or pushed in too hard. Sorry I don't have more to offer.

Same thing happened to me, it only played through my right speaker. I found that if I you push down the plug into the jack, and hold it there, you can hear it through the other speaker. Sometimes it would just work normally... but yeah I also found the same flaw in the product

I got the iHome about four months ago, and I found that when i had the static, it was only when I had the 3d mode on. SO that is what I found to be the problem for me. Good luck and I will no longer pay attention to this discussionps. I really don't find the 3d mode to be pleasant, so I don't use it anyway. and why would you have it on, while it wasn't playing music?

did you flip the adjustment switch on the bottom or check to see if you muted the sound. I have not tried the device on my computer but I use it on my tv. hope this helps

I'd see if I could get this kind of adapter locally. For example, our local BestBuy had one for a dollar, I think.The headphones? Haven't used them much; initial thoughts: pretty good sound, not the most comfortable.

Mine worked very intermittently. I was able to get music to come out of it, but not very reliably. Try moving it around. You could also check if there's an update for the firmware for your access point. I ended up sending mine back because the music was constantly pausing.

I have the same problem, it's a fault with the chord it's too thin. you can get one from Radio Shack or similar places. Just ask for an auxiliary audio chord and they'll provide it.

check the wire connection. I have to wiggle mine around to stop static, loss of sound in one ear, and clicking. I always press my connector in firmly to be sure. If that doesn't work, I'd suggest trying new speakers.

I'm having the same problem with static apparently generated by my plasma TV -- the lighter/whiter the picture, the worse the static. Is there a solution other than getting another model headphone? If so, which one? Randy

Well actually after like 2 weeks, something happened to them and instead or being just a little static, it's a lot of static now. And it pauses the song by it's self constantly. I don't recall stretching them or messing with them so I dont know whats wrong. I need to change my previous review because these things aren't working.

We had a system it plugged in to, but I have seen adapters that you can plug into a computer with. However, I will forewarn you the one I got had HORRIBLE quality. It would alternate between a muffled sound and whisper quiet. No amount of adjusting helped.

I got some feedback when using the amplifier in a small room and at high volume. Try lower volume or any close wall at front. If feedback is always present, maybe is defective.

I don't think you'll have a problem. I can turn my modulator to a station that is pure static and whatever I'm using my modulator to play comes in clearly; I can also turn it to a station whose music is coming in clearly and the modulator still "overrides" the station to play just fine.

I had the same problem. Was able to buy the adapters cheaply at Radio Shack. I still had issues though with the signal/picture quality coming through the connection being significantly degraded (lots of static).

I have the same system and have no problems playing my ipod through all the speakers. There must be something wrong in your settings for that port? I guess I never changed anything when I hooked up my ipod.

Not sure what other devices you mean. We have it in the living room, the computer is in the same room, as well as a stereo in the same room. No static at all. It is the best money we have spent on speakers so that my husband can hear the TV loud enough for him , without blasting everyone else out of the room. These are highly recommended.

I have the same problem and unfortunately have not been able to play music from it either. Maybe we can get an answer from the makers on what we might be doing incorrect.
