problem is I do my music production on a Surface Pro, and it has only 1 USB port. I tried the following and the results were consistently the same: pops and crackles can be heard while the metal part of USB cable touches the metal part of the USB port. - different brands of USB 3 and 2 hubs...

did some research and it seems attaching ferrite bead to cables might be something worth trying... hoping this fixes it.

yes there are lots of ways to avoid it, but I would like to fix it/remove it because I suspect it might be related to other rare pops and crackles that randomly appear when I am listening.

Hi I would like to know how to get rid of some kind of pop noise that I hear whenever I try to connect a USB device with external power adapter (like external WD hard disks) to my USB hub. As soon as the USB port touches a port, I hear pop and crackles in my monitors and it continues until the...

I have both Audio-Technica ATH-M50x and Beyerdynamic DT 770 M. DT 770 M is superior in every way; passive noise cancellation, build quality, sound quality, comfort.

Hi people, A little background: My job requires me to travel a lot with train and let me tell ya these things in Italy are loud like a freaking factory! Listening to music without damaging your ears is impossible while riding... I feel like it's damaging my ears even not doing anything. I...

Thanks for all the replies. I’m sure they’ll be useful to future buyers.   I went ahead and bought the PX 360 and am very happy with them for the price. Only 2 small issues I encountered:   1) Initially the bass was too strong, more than it should be naturally. It almost sounded like...

so looks like PX 360 is not very popular here... HD 25-1 II dips a little above my price range but still manageable if it is really the superior headphone to PX 360. here is the Technical Data of both for final comparison. I'd appreciate any input.   PX 360 Transducer principle...

I'm going to buy my first pair of high quality headphones and hope for them to last for as long as possible since budget is tight.   This is the the main one I'm considering to buy and would appreciate any feedback on its quality and value.   Sennheiser PX 360     after that, other...
