Does the filter affect output volume? I just put one in, after using the Drop for a few days, and the output seems to be significantly diminished.

Don't know - have not used this humidifier without filter. Old humidifier had no filter; put out much "white dust", so switched to humidifier with filter and it significantly reduced this problem. Currently use 2 Crane tear-drop humidifiers in 800+ square foot apartment and have no problem keeping humidity at comfortable level.

I use the TV, a PS2, Blue-ray Player, Bluetooth devices (Ipod and Iphone to stream music), and I have not noticed a drop in volume. Sorry

Haven't tried that. I will give it a go today or tomorrow. Get back to me then. So I tested the unit on both program content and commercial content. Both were in the range of 38-40 db. Didn't see any difference in the sound level between them.

I don't hear any drop. Mine is connected to a Boulder pre amp. Hope that helps.

Well first check you input gain but on mine the meter suddenly maxed out then dropped to nothing and hasn't worked since. That was on the first day of use. However, everything else works as it should (if a little noisy, it's not the quietest pre-amp). Since my interface has either all phantom power on or off I use the preamp for using both condenser and dynamic mics together. I don't think pinned in the red is normal.

Yes same thing happened to me. I ended up returning my unit. I went to the audio store to see if it happened to other units and it did. I would turn up the volume and the sound would cut out and not come back on unless I power cycled my head unit.

Well, yes, it does. It will still cut the output volume down some (don't know actual, just seems maybe to 2/3rds). You will loose some of the bottom end of the sound and it will be muffled somewhat. I wouldn't do that for a performance, but for a quieter practice it should help.

Your source is doing that. Try plugging it in a different device. Hiss gone, guaranteed. (Late answer, but might help future inquirers).

I would be suspect if there was a noticeable flow difference. My experience has been that new filter cartridges produces a better flow for a while and gradually diminishes.

I have an output amplifier (DJ Stuff) that I use anyway so I didn't notice anything flat. Try boosting you Bass setting in yours computers EQ

Make sure that when priming the filter, you need to fill it to the very top. Then turn the fill cap so it's snug. this should relieve the pressure, after about 3 minutes the buzzing/humming should stop. good luck

Did you make sure that the inline fuse was good? I have had no issues. We did not use the inline volume control and have had great success.

It is doubtful that this problem can be fixed by the user. If it is still under warrantee, contact the manufacturer. An alternative is to measure the output with a VOM.

I did not notice any drop in water pressure at all, but I'm on a city system and my water pressure is actually to high! But I thing it all comes down to the filter cartridge, you use, the more they filter out the more restrictive, lowering your water pressure. Some filter cartridges filter out down to one micron and need changed monthly, may lower your water pressure. I use the ones that need changed every three months, and when they flushed our water lines, I had a lot of junk trapped by my filter. I also ran 3/4" pipe from the pipe interring the house to the filter before I tied it into my house system, which is using 1/2" pipe. No problems so far, I would recommend the Watts filter to anyone.

It does make a dripping noise while it's filtering. I have two filters in and it drips for an hour or two. We fill it before bedtime and we don't hear it when we're in our room.

I have the EXACT same problem. I use them on my laptop but the first thing I noticed was the hiss. I was shockingly disappointing and tried the other headphone outlet but to the same effect. Its just not one bud, but both, so I'm guessing its not like a damage issue.I'm not a sound blaster and usually have my music playing kinda low so the hiss is always noticeable.Right now I'm contacting Sennheiser about the issue.

Not necessarily. Sometimes it may seem that you lose some bottom end but, not really "tone". Not that I'VE noticed anyways. I read somewhere that when mic'ing an amp, sometimes the floor can have an adverse effect on the sound. I'm guessing it's a matter of taste.
