Are there any issues with noise or hum when listening while both the transmitter and receiver are plugged in to a power source?

I don't believe I've had such a problem. Wait; I'm confused. I plug the transmitter into my computer (the headphone jack, I believe) and the receiver into my headphones. Is my computer a power source? My only complaint is there doesn't appear to be any way to change the rechargeable battery, if it wears out, and the company did not respond to my email concerning how to access the battery. They are in Australia.

I have only done this with the transmitter set up to charge while playing and didn't notice any hum being picked up. I did have it charging off a plug-in adapter (versus being connected to a computer USB port). Just as a consideration, if this is how you intend to use the system on occasion, you might want to purchase higher amperage plug-in USB chargers ...most computer USB's put out very low amperage and if your using the system while it's charging there might not be enough amperage to do both (power the transmitter and charge the battery). Of the two components, the transmitter uses the most power and its power cell exhausts before the receivers.

I bought them for my son...he requested them. Says he hears some humming but only when using them to monitor his guitar. Listening to music he hasn't noticed anything. He's been happy with them. Knows there have been some bad reviews. If your concerned and want something for music listening look into some nice wireless RF headphones. Hope this helps.

Don't remember. Returned it because I was dissatisfied with the product. Wouldn't recommend it.

I've successfully plugged both into a power source without humming. However, I suspect it may vary from power source to power source, and maybe even from unit to unit. Your milage, it might vary.

I have no issues , I love these and have 4 sets so I always have a charged set , and with 4 out of 4 working perfectly thats about as good as it gets.

I've never had any problems with static or humming. Of course there is only about 15 feet between transmitter and receiver. I use it to listen to the TV in bed while my wife sleeps, so I'm not up walking around or anything like that.

Speaker hiss no but if u have a cd on at low volume that happens sometimes in some radios don't worry about it

I listened really closely (ear right next to the switch) and too can hear a very faint electrical hum (maybe 60 kHz?). But from any reasonable distance, I can't hear it at all.

There is a very very quiet hum. I cannot hear it unless my put the timer to my ear.

Also, if possible only use equipment with a grounded 3 prong plug. Without the third ground connector on the power cord the equipment can't be properly grounded and so ground loop hum will be harder to avoid ...

It depends. Check your inputs on the PA system. You will also likely get a buzz on the line because of the power feed through the line, but this is NOT from the cable.

No, but do get occasional static. I Just adjust the volume up& down, and it clears up. Might give it try. Consider returning, shouldn't do that. Or if not worth the cost, try repositioning the transmitter to a higher position away from other electrical equipment, DVD player, satellite receiver, etc..,

I don't think I've heard any on mine. If you are hearing the hum while using the RCA jacks then maybe trying unplugging it from USB/have the turntable and speakers on separate outlets. If you are hearing it over USB then maybe just try the same isolation but between the computer and the turntable.

You know I had to go and check! However, I have an 828LM and no hum whatsoever. Have you unplugged (the replugged) the unit and tested it away from other equipment for this humming noise?

I have had this unit for almost a year in live application and have not experienced any unusual noise or hiss. I am sure if the gain structure is wrong any unit could have the potential for noise. hope that's what you wanted to hear

I have laying flat ontop of my receiver and I have not experienced and noise/performance issues

I had this happen to me whenever the speakers were on, charging, and the headphone jack plugged in to the computer. If it is off and only charging, there is no noise emitted at all.

Yes, I too can hear a faint hum when the speakers auxiliary jack is either plugged in or not. However, the hum I hear is so minute and faint that the only real possible way of detecting it is by placing my ear more or less directly next to the bass. Also, the hum subsides whenever sound is played. It is my belief the hum is merely caused by the electricity coursing through the bass. Cyber Acoustics products produce powerful sound so it is not illogical to think that they would use a decent amount of power to function. This is my 50 cents but feel free to contact them. They are a reputable company. Yes, I too can hear a faint hum when the speakers auxiliary jack is either plugged in or not.

No, if the two transmitters are connected to two different sources they will interfere with each other.

Hi i own two on them on same ciruit no humming sound while in use. Good luck.

...short answer: Yes. HOWEVER--As was noted by another reviewer, there is a slight hum that you may hear while using this unit, and it may be distracting if intense concentration is required. (That's just my opinion, however.) If that is not a significant issue to you, then you will likely be very satisfied with the purchase.

I have two pairs and both had a humming sound when plugged into AV receivers. The humming sound was much lower when plugged into the high-end AV receiver.
