Just wanted to say thanks to WhatTheHell888, as I was going to ditch the E7 after verifying that it was the e7 itself what was failing (switched earphones, usb ports, usb cables, pc's, nothing worked). The AUX thing finally did the trick, so many thanks to the user that discovered this.

Hello, thank you for your answer.   Seems like the JVC FX3X may suit the budget, but if I didn't mess up the others are somewhat pricey than the M2.   Are the JVC too bassy as I've read in reviews? Anyone could compare with the M2?   What about the Klispch? Any ideas on how do they...

Hello all, After two years of good service, my Brainwavz M2 have decided to definitely give up. Not complaining, as they've been used for several hours each day of the week (office use), but the right speaker has definitely failed at the "Y" cord. I am looking for a substitute right now...
