Hello,

Out of curiosity I'd like to know more about the IPhone airplane mode incidence on headphones.
It is widely reported that unshielded speaker docks react somewhat badly to the iPhone being nearby.
I am wondering just for general culture's sake if such interferences also happen to exist with headphones and what their nature would be. So :
1 - Is it possible for the iPhone to interfere with the sound quality of headphones when airplane mode is off ?
2 - if so, what is the nature of this interference (jitter ?) and how does it translate soundwise (etchy trebles for example ?) ? Is it temporary or does it have a permanent effect on components quality ?
3 - What is a "shielded" device ?
4 - Do you know any website where I can get more info about that ?

Sorry of I posted this in the wrong forum.
