static when connected through the aux port: Does anyone else hear a static noise coming through their speakers when they use the aux port?

I tried three docks and each one of them had a static noise that was very annoying in certain songs. Now, I don't understand when you say that ipod, connected to the aux, doesn't make any static noise? My sansa player or a laptop doesn't produce any static noise in my earphones or other speakers but it does on this dock. So, it must be the AUX port on this dock that is not functioning properly.

I never noticed it. I kept an iPad, iPhone, multiple halogen-dimmed lights on within two feet of the unit . . then tried them all off, when I was having the static/hum issue. The static only came from the remote: I'm convinced of that. If you keep the system on when NOT using the audio input, you can detect a very low-level, hum from the Cyber Acoustics system being on and, I assume, "waiting." But it's NOT the static and loud hum I was hearing, when I requested a replacement remote pod. That sound was incredibly loud, harsh, and distracting. This circuit hum is almost undetectable but is present, if you're a hyper sensitive type. My AC kicks in (which is quiet) and completely camouflages this circuit hum, as the sound is so faint. There you go....

Never had any static issues with the two I ordered. Been using almost 6 months. Do you have other equipment around that could be causing the problem?

Yup, had the same exact problem. I thought it was the speaker to speaker cables, the Coax or Toslink cable and then my computers sound card but it wasn't. It drove me nuts. If it's still under warranty, send it back and have them fix it.

the hum level on my pioneer speakers is very low. you can hear a faint static sound if you put your ear right up to the speaker, but it is not intrusive. on the other hand my friend also has these exact speakers, and he sometimes noticed a much louder static noise on his speakers, much like a guitar amp sometimes picks up radio/ cell phone frequencies and those noises come through the speakers. but I think that happened only because somehow his speakers were near some sort of frequency. so it's more of a variable problem, not something that always happens. hope this helps. :)

I would try it because I'm using it to switch between an Apple and home built computer that has external speakers and headphones... I don't hear static and it rocks pretty good... Read the return policy and go for it!!! It works for my needs

I don't have that problem, so I can't give you a definitive answer. I can say that mine has to be set on "CD" for it to play out the AUX cable. If you're doing that, perhaps a wiring issue is causing your problem.

I've unplugged it from time to time (really just to move it) and haven't had to reset it up. Since I've written the review, I have seen some AirPlay disconnects (even with setting a static IP address). I know that setting a static IP is the way to go, but again have had a couple interruptions of music.

I have not had this problem.. No static on my device check if there is like a modem near by That could probably cause the static.

I have used my Logitech wireless speaker adapter for over a year now, and have never experienced any static at all. I connect both my iPod Touch and my iPad to the adapter, connected to my 20-year old stereo receiver (with speakers), and have never had any trouble with it. At least in this setting, it works beautifully, and I love it. (I have not tried it with a laptop bluetooth connection.)

I got the iHome about four months ago, and I found that when i had the static, it was only when I had the 3d mode on. SO that is what I found to be the problem for me. Good luck and I will no longer pay attention to this discussionps. I really don't find the 3d mode to be pleasant, so I don't use it anyway. and why would you have it on, while it wasn't playing music?

check the wire connection. I have to wiggle mine around to stop static, loss of sound in one ear, and clicking. I always press my connector in firmly to be sure. If that doesn't work, I'd suggest trying new speakers.

HI Erica, does the static sound comes from the speakers? or from underneath by the CPU fan? I bought this laptop for a friend and they haven't had any issues with it thus far.

I don't know. All I can tell you is that I have a tv, computer, two stereos and dvd player plugged in. If I connect any one of the to another or turn all on at once I get no hum or static. The volume is a little reduced with each button pushed down but no other issues. It shouldn't matter but maybe a shielded cable? I used to have an old computer that produced radio frequency interference. It made static on the older tube type television if it was close to it when I connected cheap audio cable to it.. just throwing that out. Good luck.

Can someone please tell me if there is actual static when this product is used with an ipod touch 2nd generation?
