My husband tells me there's a round discuss type thing underneath the trampoline that the cable plugs into. It's what plays the music and does the counting etc.

There is a place for it under the handle bar area. You plug it in and then there is another end that goes into the little red box under the jumper. If you go to google and put in the trampoline instructions they should come up.

Hi! The cable connects to a sensor device that is attached under the trampoline. It is what activates the music and other sounds found on the handlebar.

Not sure, it could be what you are using for an audio source? I have been using mine for quite a while with the same tube and havent noticed any quality issues.

I had somewhat the same problem. It looked like my audio cable was working but really was not. They sent me a new cable and now it works fine

It appears to be a custom cable. Mine sometimes acts up, it loses the right channel and I have to wiggle it near the connector to get it back. I am not sure if it is the connector or the cable inside. Once it works ok, I try not to disturb it.

Your aux cable might be ripped from the inside, get a new one and see how and if that helps any.

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.

Do the lights show that the bar "thinks" it's off? (ie, it really does turn off). There are some wires connecting this to your audio source - if you disconnect them, does that cause any change? (also, as with any electronics, you might try unplugging, wait 20 seconds, then replug in). I can't think of a good reason for such a noise other than the unit dying, but these things might prove it.

Hi, Veronica. First you should probably check to see if they headphone jack is inserted completely. However, from what you just described, it could be possible that they are either broke or it is a manufacturing issue, because the pair I had also had the same issue after a few months.

Mine was a total piece of junk. No volume control, etc etc etc. - that's all I know. It should have gone in the garbage instead of being sold as a working player.

This could be several different things. The most likely culprit is your sound card... if you want to get rid of it it for good, buy an audio interface.If you already have one, then I would make sure you have good shielded cables.

I can't fit any of my headphones into the jack. The case is too thick and the headphone jack can't reach the phone inside. I can't find an auxiliary cable that fits it either. I just bought $300 Bose headphones for conference calls and they do not fit in this case. And you can't take off the case easily (which is good) but now I can't even try to use my new headphones. ANYONE FIND A CABLE THAT FITS OR AN EXTENDER?

Never had that issue. I did remove mine because of the sound.Just sounded really bad.Anybody wanna buy it for $100 ?

I think it's the optical cable that comes with this sound bar. I changed it out with another optical cable that is thicker and I no longer have this problem.

I discovered similar issues with my recently purchased HA400. It was the headphones!!! Not every headphone, but the type with microphone built in, designed for use with phones. It seems that some (all?) adapters do not correctly place their internal contacts for the special plug that comes with these headphones. Instead, the signal is shorted out and makes it appear that the amp is broken. Happened to me until I figured it out.

I have read the same thing, but both J&R; Music and Amazon continue to sell this item -- is it an upgrade ... a NEW model ... or a close-out of the old potentially "defective" unit?

I just received a pair, and wrote about it here before I saw this. Your story sounds just like mine. Sound is terrible. I wrote Amazon about it. I guess I'll see what they (Amazon) are made of. As what to do. Send them an email. Look for "Contact Us" on one of the help pages.
