Hi,
Does anyone have a fix for this. It's loud and painful. It has forced me to not use these anymore and they're my best work phones. I have done a warranty claim with monster but the new ones they sent do it too. I'm using them with an 80gb iPod. None of my other phones pop with this iPod. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Anthony

I think your iPod is trying to tell you something.

"i dont get along with this phone, get a new one"

It means it's time for a new pair of headphones.

With that, I welcome you to Head-Fi, sorry about your wallet.

As you will soon find out, other Headfi'ers disapprove of Beats by Dre, and will recommend you other models of headphones for you to buy that will be "worth the money". That's where the beginning of the end is, and your wallet will forever be a paraplegic. Good luck!

I would just ask for a refund. Then use the money to get some cans that will blow you away.

Absolutely! I owned some cans like yours before and i was very dissapointed. They are overpriced and not very good. Get another set of cans!

When do they pop? Is it a one time thing or continuos. They may be picking up interference from somewhere. Have you tried the phones at another location besides work?

 

[Anthony_Jacob]

They pop when my body discharges static electricity, like when I touch door handles, etc. It happens everywhere, not just work.

I really like these for work because they're closed, sound good and don't need an amp. Sure I could use my grado's but the people next to me would hear all the sound and would be annoyed. I could use my Denon d2000s but they're cumbersome and need to be amped. So it's either the beats or the triports for work, and the Beats sound significantly better.

It may be the onboard amp on the beats producing the noise or you could be affecting the noise cancelling mike with the static.

Unlucky. Do they have a noise cancelling off mode?

 

[Anthony_Jacob]

No. You have to use the noise canceling to hear music.
