Keep them off when there is no sound or the buzz will drive you crazy!

While you're playing something there is not problem and they sound good, otherwise there is a buzzing sound. It is not the AUX cable. The same buzzing is there without the cable. :-( oh well.

Own these very terrible noise at 0-volume.  Very bad decision to buy these.  took out and replaced with Audioquest rca with 0 noise.  Guys in the car audio competions are having issues also with these rca wires.  Buyer Beware!!

If you buy these to listen to music , they are great. If you want to talk on them , then don't waist your money. If there is any background noise at all the other person has a hard time hearing you. You have to almost yell so they can hear you.

I bought 3 of these and all of them have bad buzzing noises. I tried connecting them to 3 different devices and all 3 buzz badly.

Received original pair... noticed one had a loud buzzing noise just being turned on, even with nothing connected and volume turned all the way down.  Called and got a return authorized, and when got the replacement, and tried them again.... not only did the new one have the same buzz, but the other of the original pair started doing it also.  Returned all of them.  Ordered a different brand.  Very happy with this brand.  No noise from speakers except what I input to them  :)

I have to unplug one of the cables when I use one of the inputs, otherwise I get buzz.

The headfones have great clear sound when watching movies, very comfortable BUT......... you can hear buzzing during silent sections. Its not loud but it is detectable anda distraction when watching movies and shows. Some people are not bothered by it but once I detected it, it bothered me constantly.

My wife was using an old set that we got from a family member and she loved them.  So we decided to buy two new sets of the exact model for her to use in two different rooms.  Unfortunately both of the new sets have a loud buzzing and interference to the extent that they cannot be used and will be returned.  In an attempt to root cause the interference source on the new sets I switched out new and old components using the base, the headphones, batteries and power cord.  Turns out that the new power cords are the source of the problem.  Both of the new sets sound fine with the old power cord and the old set that always worked fine had the loud buzzing with the either of the new power cords.  Now that my mini Red X study solved the problem for Audiovox I hope they soon resolve this issue!

They do their job, however, there is a buzzing noise in the background when you are using which gets very annoying when you're trying to focus.

Just got these in and tried them in two different fixtures with a different type of dimmer in each fixture and both have a noticable buzz. Bulbs appear to dim well but they are just as loud as the cheap ULA's I had in already. So, I'm pretty disappointed because the noise is the problem that I really cared about. I will probably write the company and return these. Fixtures where a Leviton stepped dimmer and a Leviton DHC dimmer. The company that sold these 'The General Store' had fast shipping and I have no complaints about them.

Fantastic design on these things, but they simply do not block an adequate DB overall and are really uncomfortable too! I was surprised, since I've had a great experience with their HERE Active Listening earbuds. But like some other reviewers, my ears are ringing badly after using the DUBS ... and because it lets some amount of SOME frequencies through, they're ringing irregularly and everything sounds strange now. I feel awful.

It's hard to protect your ears and treat them to music as it should be heard. Aside from molded musicians plugs,the only thing I can fully recommend is Earasers so far. They're comfy and safer.

The power box buzzed so loudly I could hear it when I was outside. I decided that I could deal with that since my kitchen is super dark. Well...after being turned on for about an hour a whopping THREE TIMES (they continually tripped my breaker), they no longer work at all... They were really nice when they did though.

Nope. I won't be buying any more Audio Technica. A few days after I got them they started intermittently buzzing when a the noise canceling was on. An annoying sound and one that I'm guessing would only get worse with time. They did make big improvements in construction in the last few years, though. The first pair I got a few years ago sounded good, but the headphones were so flimsy they broke.
The sound on these is good for the price, but I'm really not going to mess with this company any more. I'll save my money and go high-end or nothing.

Since there is no volume knob on the speakers, the volume is directly linked to your computer's volume control.  The problem is that the minimum volume level is too loud.  If you want to play music or games when your spouse is sleeping or in your office without disturbing others, I don't recommend these.  When they're not completely off, they're definitely ON, with nothing in between.  Volume variability: IT'S IMPORTANT!

A loud, annoying buzzing sound comes from these bulbs when installed on a circuit controlled by a Lutron dimmer, even when the dimmer is full on 100% (not dimmed). I tried these on two different dimming circuits and got the same unacceptable result. Except for the noise they produced, they dimmed quite well and were able to dim to a very low level, but the buzzing sound is a deal-killer, even with high ceilings that put the noisy bulbs farther out of ear-shot than some installations would require. Rather than send these back, I installed them on a circuit with an on-off switch (not a dimmer) and they are quiet with no buzzing. The light output is high quality and the color temperature is accurate. The high color rendering index seems accurate. If I had not tried these on a dimmer I'd give them 5 stars for use on a standard on-off switch circuit, but since they are advertised as dimming, they just don't cut it.
