there is a periodic buzzing in my left earbud for about a second or so. Any ideas?

that could be tinnitus, the great head-fi affliction. go to a doc to make sure

the sound isn't being emmited from my ear but the actual headphone. the sound similar to when you're in a car and someone's cell phone rings and there is a little zzzz...zzzz noise that emits from the speaker closest to the cell phone. i assume its because of the frequencies.

the sound only occurs with the se530s, not with any other headphone i use.

Ooooh, ok, yea then in most cases there is a signal being sent around the headphones and they are picking it up. If it happens from time to time it might be a cell phone call (I doubt it though).
But I don't know for sure. Might be a problem with the headphones :/

meh if its the headphones i'll just swap em out. wouldnt be the first time i swaped them.

as a note the last like 2 days i've switched the pockets i hold my cell phone and ipod in. the cell is in my left pant pocket and ipod in my right coat pocket...so far no noise for two days so i believe that was the problem. if the noise returns i'll just replace the headphones.

Try listen to Fort Minor's "Where'd You Go Feat. Holly Brook" if you have it. There is a half second cellphone buzz right in the beginning.
