Yes, one drawback I have found with this product is the break up of the signal so that the music you are listening to at times can be "choppy". Don't know if there is a remedy for this.

It will break up if your using on an FM channel if the FM channel gets stronger as you travel . Since it has a headphone jack I cured this by getting a casset thing that has a head phone jack on it and feed the sound into the radio that way . Of course you need a radio that has a casset player .

Yes. Lots of static...and I have NO radio reception where I live so it shouldn't be an issue.

I had difficulty hearing anything but static. The volume was terrible. A waste of time and money.

It works great for me! but one draw back is that when listening to your music there will be a small faint of static in the background.

Mine usually gets a lot of static then goes to very annoying screeching sound.

I have not. I did have a problem with the plastic surrounding the internal cables separating after about 6 months (those were the cheaper ones.) For these particular ones, it's only been 2 months and my volume is starting to go in and out of my left bud and I never play it at full capacity. -(

Nope. I've had this for a few months and haven't had any problems. Maybe it's just a defective unit?

I have had issues with the cord I have had to return to shure once. now I have to send back again because it wasn't fixed. Cutting out when I move cord or head.

I was using the cable with a PS3, and the "static" appeared regardless of what I was doing: playing games, watching a movie, going through the menus. Perhaps static is not the best word - it's not as though the entire screen went to snow. I could still see the picture, however there was definitely visual, random, moving interference on top. As for isolating the cable as the problem, I tried switching to another HDMI input, the problem persisted. I tried updating the PS3 firmware, the problem persisted. I checked the tv settings, nothing really to change there. I swapped the cable for another (GE), voila!, "static" gone. Maybe not scientifically indisputable, but a fair application of the process of elimination. Fwiw, Amazon did honor the warranty and send me a replacement cable. I opted to stick with the GE because it's performance has been solid so far.

Yes, we have, but we live in a very old house. All of the outlets have a hard time handling certain things plugged in. It only happened once or twice in the many months we used it. Don't know about newer houses.

No issues that I know of. Sounds like static electricity is effecting the unit? I'd say its defective. Good luck!!

I was using it with the 5s and I was getting a ton of static. The static was actually so bad that it overpowered the songs.

I have not had any problem with mine. I have been using it constantly for about 3 months now without failure.

I got the same issue (connected with USB) plus, has static. The on/off control is in the weird location and many times I get the Static with a noise in the speaker. They even get sound when I turn on and off the light in the room. It never happened with the previous speakers.

Sorry, I haven't had that problem and can't give specific advice. What happens when you turn it off and then on again? Doing that often clears a problem with a variety of electronic devices.

I have that same issue, I thought at first it was coming from the show I was watching but that wasn't the case. I'm debating on returning it for a replacement. The static can be quite annoying at times...

Yes, I had a lot of static though. I found another cord on here that worked better. I don't remember the name of the other cord. It's in here though.
