Hello,

I'm wondering if having my headphones plugged into the sound card of my PC all the time is worse than plugging and unplugging them every time I use them? If I had stereo speakers I would obviously turn them off when they weren't in use , but, obviously, the headphones don't have a power button

. Plugging/Unplugging every time is pretty irritating... What's your opinion?

I'm not quite sure what you mean, but just leaving them plugged in doesn't hurt the headphones. What can be so-so good in the long run however, is that "pop" you get when turning on/off the computer.

Don't see a problem with leaving them plugged in.
But to keep those unwanted bops and clicks out, turn down the volume when not using them.
