Does this device emit a "hissing" sound when in use? If so, is it loud? Thank you!

No at this time it works fine for vey liquid items - WD 40 etc - anything thicker and it is not a good spraying device

not much sound, just about like any other rattle can paint sprayer. My issue with it was the irreplaceable teflon (?) seal that cracks eventually. Makes for a very expensive piece to chuck in the recycling bin.

I had a slight problem with the hiss. Suggestion that worked for me: Upon EVERY refill, carefully clean ALL surfaces, cracks, threads, and teflon gasket of the head piece. Tighten head to body firmly.

We deployed this unit out to a client so its not something that I have daily interaction with. However, I don't recall it being something that stood out to me or if I even noticed any fan noise at all. I know that isn't a great deal of useful information but wanted to get a response back to you.

Won't make any difference because hissing comes from diffent area like cars, near electronic device wind or people movement The only way to eliminate hissing noise is through video editing and you want better result you needs speech cleaner If you want better result you need to get professional wireless microphone cost $700 or more Good luck

As Jeffrey...Yes, I have the same hissing sound on my unit too... I am from Canada, and I cannot shipping it back to the USA since It will be too expensive to do so, so I'll just keep it as is.

I seldom experience a hissing or crackling. When I do I just scan and the noise goes away. This happens very infrequently to me. I rarely have any problems with hissing. I found out a while back that if you are too close to the TV you may experience a hissing. Just move a little bit away and it will clear up.

Yes, there is some hiss. I have had a set of these for about six months and have had the wires, power unit and amp replaced but the hiss is still there. Maybe it's because these are powerful speakers and I don't turn up the volume very far (9 oclock on the dial). I'm not satisfied with these at all. I also just bought a set of Altec Lansing FX4021 speakersd and they are much clearer. I'm very satuisfied with them and they were cheaper. You should know that i only use these ProMedia speakers for music - no gaming. Good luck with your decision.

I use this in addition to a small, cheap as possible, black fan. I usually buy one at Target, etc. and stay away from the ones that say "quiet operation." Ha. By itself, it's loud, but noise levels are obviously different per house/apartment/city, etc. With both things, I usually don't hear a thing!

No.... not at all. it's very quiet. FYI... we have two.. and both work very well.. no complaints whatever.

It's noticeable but not the worst I've heard. Putting it up high (be careful, drippage) might block it. We had music and the noise wasn't a problem. Can definitely talk over it.Please be aware that I personally had TERRIBLE dripping problems with mine but perhaps it was a defective item. Best of luck if you purchase!

I have not had any problems with it. The main suggestion is to be sure that the unit is pushed to the "off" position before laying it down after you have finished with it. Like anything else, left unattended it could burn someone or something, especially while still hot. Listen for the "hiss"--no sound, it is usually off. When in doubt, remove the thermal unit. It's great not being restricted to using an outlet.

No noise here on mine with multiple devices. I love it and suggest you try it with another device and if it's still noisy have Amazon replace yours.

it is not a whistle, it is just like a radiator hissing for a few seconds, while it releases the pressure. i say it is like a radiator hissing because it lets out some steam and that is what it sounds like.

It's not noisy but not perfectly quiet. Just a low humming sound. I have used it in my bedroom and it did not keep my awake but some people are more sensitive to sounds than others.

Well, let me qualify my response, not unless the 'appliance' you have plugged in to happens to produce a humming sound. For whatever reason that is. LMAO!

the only hiss I've received, is when I used my headphones as an output, But on my computer, I record videos for youtube, and I don't have that noise. Of course, I have a condenser mic that goes to the input of the mixer... But I have not tried it with a output for an amp or anything other than the headset (which does hiss) and the computer (which doesn't hiss).

If you're carrying audio over HDMI, your connection is fine. The cause of the hiss is either your receiver-speaker lines or the audio settings on your computer, including drivers and software. If the his happens for other HDMI audio sources (e.g. gaming console, BluRay player), then the problem is your speaker connection. If it's only your computer, Try updating audio drivers, different audio programs, and verify that the sound card and receiver are using the same audio format. Good luck!

Hey thanks for the response. I have not heard the "farting" sound for a while so I guess it went away some how. The sound bar works for my purposes (I live in a small apartment). This is pretty much my first "home theater" sound set up so I do not have much of reference to compare it to but I like it, gets pretty loud.
