Long live wires! My sad experience of using Bluetooth headphones. Problems with Bluetooth headphones and ways to solve them Why noisy bluetooth headphones

Causes of noise in headphones:

You have connected the headphones to a computer or laptop, and instead of a pleasant and favorite music, hear an annoying hiss or crackle, who will like this? At the same time, you do not understand why there are noise in the headphones, where he appeared and what to do with it.

The most unpleasant in the effect of noise in the headphones is that it is very difficult to find out because of what it appeared and how to eliminate it. There can be a lot of causes of cod in headphones, the usual algorithm for finding the causes of bad work of the headphone is consistent in the potential sources of noise, their exception or isolating and further verification. In theory, it looks simple, but in practice such an algorithm is completely impossible.

For example, you have only one computer that is connected to the outlet, which is inserted into the concrete wall, the apartment has repairs and to install the computer to another place, or another room, is impossible, because There is no place for him. And so we can eliminate all possible causes of extraneous noise in headphones.

However, we can start with the easiest and most obvious potential causes of interference in the headphones, and there is a check of their result, we will not have the result, we will only hope that in the future this problem is self-sustaining. For example, the neighbors turn off the perforator, or after a while you buy a voltage stabilizer through which the computer is connected.

So, let's start searching for the cause of hissing in headphones.

Cable damage - very frequent cause of hissing and cod in headphones


Let's start with the simplest and most common cause of extraneous noise in headphones - a damaged cable or bad contact in the nest.

Carefully consider the headphone cable, it must be absolutely whole, it should be the same density inside inside. Spend the entire cable with your hands, perhaps in some place inside the cable was interrupted or once you beat the cable too much and the copper veins inside it broke off.

If, after a visual and tactile check, the cable does not cause suspicion, check the Jack, its articulation and the audio accession itself, in which you connect headphones.

Check out how well you insert Jack into the nest, it must come easily, with a slight click and keep it firmly. Jack should be in the nest to the end, should not be visible part of Jack.

Sometimes, due to the characteristics of the structure of the nest of about 1 mm, Jack remains visible, but no more and the phenomenon is rare.

Bad contact is one of the most common causes of noise and cod in headphones. Wipe the Jack with a dry soft cloth, it may be contaminated or covered with a layer of oxide.

If the wire suspicion does not cause and jack to the nest plugged, and the noise remains, you need to continue the search.

Technical condition of headphones - the possible cause of white noise


After checking the wire and Jack did not give the result, it is necessary to check the headphones themselves.

Carefully inspect them, perhaps recently they fell on a solid surface, cracks or other traces of damage appeared on the housing.

Be sure to try to connect headphones to another sound source, such as telephone, TV or tablet.

It is very important to understand and establish that the cause of white noise in the headphones is not the headphones themselves, but the device to which they are connected.

If, when connected to another device, white noise disappeared, it means that the headphones themselves are in order together with the wire and jack, and we go to the further search for the appearance of a cod.

Cheap columns can cause noise in headphones


If noise in headphones occurs when connected to a computer or laptop, to which inexpensive multimedia columns are connected at the same time, try to turn off the speakers and check whether the interference in the headphones disappeared.

The fact is that inexpensive columns are harvested from cheap items, but most importantly - when they are assembling, they are strongly saved on soldering, wires and the overall level of construction. Therefore, inside the columns, poor contact or closure may occur, which will cause interference to the entire electrical circuit, as a result of which a foreign noise may appear in the headphones.

The speakers need to be turned off completely, and not only turn off their power.

If the full disconnection of the speakers from the computer did not help eliminate the noise in the headphones, go to the next step of finding a fault.

No grounding - the most common cause of interference in headphones when connected to a computer


For some unknown, the reasons for me in many homes do not have grounding. In general, it is not so scary, traditional household appliances, such as irons, heaters, filters and air conditioners work normally. But it costs to connect equipment unnecessary power grid, which is very sensitive to the quality of the power supply, as problems immediately come out.

The computer connected to an uncontrolled outlet is direct expensive not only to noise in headphones, but also the possible reason for the release of the computer is entirely due to the impact on static electricity.

A normal way to solve this problem is to ground the socket to which the computer connects. But it is not easy to do it, if at all possible. For this you need to call the electrician, however, in this case, most likely, it is most likely to shift the wiring across the apartment, and this is already a serious repair.

There is a simple way to check whether the ground will help eliminate the noise in the headphones - throw the wire from the computer to the battery.

You need to take the usual copper wire of a small cross section, from two sides with bare contacts. One end to lean to the computer housing (preferably to the back of it), and the other to the battery. To lean the wire to the painted part of the battery is useless, you need to lean to the metal of the battery, so you have to search for such a place. Usually naked metal can be found on the rear of the battery.

If you did everything right, and the noise left or significantly decreased, it means that the matter is grounded.

Remember: You can not ground through the battery to consider a constant solution. Such a grounding can lead to a complete failure of the entire computer, only your neighbor grounds serious equipment to the battery, like a computer, having received a powerful discharge of electricity to the body, will fail. This is only a method of checking, no more.

But what to do if you know exactly that the sockets have a grounding, and the check with the wire did not give anything? We continue searching the cod in the headphones.

The noise from the microphone is one of the many reasons for the occurrence of interference in headphones.


We looked at possible sources of noise problems in headphones that concern material intervention, now we have problems that relate to the configuration of computer equipment.

One of the most common causes of noise in the headphones is noise from the microphone of the sound card.

Even if the microphone is not connected to your sound card, noise from the microphone socket can occur.

In order to check this hypothesis, you need to go to the sound of the sound of your audio card, find the slider that adjusts the volume level of the microphone and reduce it to zero. Either, if there is such an opportunity, turn off the sound from the microphone.

If the cause of noise in the headphones was a microphone input, then the disconnection of the sound from it should be fully corrected.


In order to get to the microphone volume settings, open the control panel, find item "Equipment and sound" And go to it.


Now find item "Sound" And go to it.


In the Sound Settings window, go to the tab "Record"then find an active microphone (in my case this is the Sound Blaster ZXR microphone), select it and click on the button. "Properties" in the lower right corner.


In a new window, find the tab "Levels", and either slide the microphone volume slider as to the left as possible until its value takes the zero indicator, or press the blue speaker icon, which is located to the right of the volume level. Near the speaker should appear a red crushed sign. This icon will mean that the microphone is completely disabled in the system. It is preferable to disable it, and not just reduce the volume level.

One of the varieties of problems with the microphone entrance or the microphone itself is its high sensitivity. This problem can be solved by incorporating the microphone noise cancellation mode.

Almost all modern sound cards have such a mode. If you find out that the cause of the cod is a microphone, but it is needed, then try to turn on noise cancellation mode if it is. This should solve the problem.

The problem with the volume of sound sources in the sound card may cause hissing in headphones


Not only the interference of the microphone can cause hissing in the headphones, the same interference can also give the adjacent audio card inputs.

Depending on the sound card model, it may have additional inputs for connecting additional equipment. They can wear the following names:

  1. What u hear
  2. Line In.
  3. S / PDIF.

Any of them can become a source of interference at a certain coincidence. Similarly, as you have reduced the volume of the microphone, you need to reduce or completely disconnect the sound from all these sockets.


To do this to go to the Windows Control Panel.


Then find a point there. "Equipment and sound".


Then click on the section "Sound".


In a new window, enter the Playback tab, select Active speakers (a device that plays the sound in headphones at the moment) and click on the "Property" button.

Next, I can't make a screenshot, because In my case, the volume level of all inputs and outputs is adjustable via a special software that controls my sound blaster sound card, in your case, most likely the tab will be available. "Levels"When you enter which you can disable all inputs and outputs of your sound card.

To check, leave only the output to the headphones, and all other possible outputs and inputs, disconnect or reduce their volume to zero.

If the problem of hissing headphones was in one of these items, it will have to disappear.

The volume level is paradoxically, but the fact, it can be the cause of interference in the headphones


In some cases, the volume level may cause interference in headphones.

Sometimes it happens that the headphones have their own volume control, plus there is an additional volume control in Windows, and there is still a volume control knob in the application, the sound of which you listen to (play, player).

In order for any equipment that has its own hardware volume control, it is good, it is necessary to make all the volume control regulators (especially the main volume slider in Windows) were 100% installed. And the final adjustment of the volume is using the hardware volume control.

To resolve Hissing, follow these steps:

  1. Fully disconnect the sound in the headphs using a hardware regulator (buttons or twisters on the headphones themselves)
  2. Volume in Windows 100%
  3. Set the volume in the application 100%
  4. Start gradually add volume on headphones and bring it to a comfortable level.

The fact is that the volume control regulators artificially reduce the volume of the sound, and then in the headphones you have to unscrew the volume to the maximum to listen at a comfortable level. However, for any technique, be it headphones, columns or car engine, long-term work on the limit possible is extremely destructively reflected on the characteristics and properties of the unit.

When setting the maximum volume with hardware on headphones, you strengthen the entire noise that comes from the computer, plus add distortion that appear in the headphones themselves at the maximum sound level.

Therefore, you need to adjust the volume by the method that I indicated to minimize possible distortions and noise from the headphones themselves, as well as remove the artificial increase in unwanted noise.

The world stepped into a wireless era. Keyboards and mice, data transmission, Internet access - everything has already left the cables for a long time. However, there are still certain things that literally keep us in this terrible world of wires. And besides the most obvious - for example, charging devices, there are less noticeable, but far from less important accessories are headphones. After all, you will agree, not everyone falls on the temper every time to think about where and how to "push" the wire only to go out. And when sports about the headphones, it is generally better not to remember. Why so there - did you never annoy you that they should be removed to stand because of the computer? Therefore, for many, the issue of buying wireless headphones is quite acute. It would seem that everything for this is - at the moment this market is already saturated enough to find a suitable option. But, unfortunately, there are a certain number of problems. After all, in essence, Bluetooth headphones did not make significant high-quality jerks from the very moment of their appearance.

But on a certain day, such a question became before me. Being confident in the fact that the current year did the technology, I quickly chose my gadget - Jabra Halo 2. [Lyrical retreat]: Yes, we can say that Jabra Halo 2 is not an indicator and a bad example. However, not every average buyer can afford an advanced technique like or - although it is possible that they will be deprived of all the following flaws. Moreover, even Jabra Halo 2 budget can not be called in no way - I will remind you that for the same one thousand hryvnia you can buy quite serious wired headphones [End of lyrical retreat]. And after almost a year since the start of operation, it is ready to tell about all aspects of life with Bluetooth middle class headphones.

The first minus surfaced almost immediately - as soon as the phone turns out in pocket jeans, the signal begins to get lost. We had to put the phone in the pocket of the jacket, the jacket, or in the bag (however, it turned out that the connection is much better in the right pocket of jeans, but it did not solve it completely). And in general, the interruption of sound is the most common problem. Interference can catch you literally at any time, and they are so nasty that you start to unwittingly turn the phone in your pocket in the search for "optimal position." Moreover, it happens that the environment affects the environment - near the local stadium, for example, interference is observed almost always. Also, the gap will pursue you in the first minute or two after connecting to the device.

Second problem - sound quality. Yes, in fact, Bluetooth headphones sound perfectly - but with a connected wire. On the wireless connection, they are suitable except for listening to podcasts, radio, watching rollers with YouTube and communicating with friends. Music connoisseurs will be increditious to turn the nose (and fairly), although not particularly arrogant users (like me) and others will be satisfied.

And it is logical that a little lame speed of work. From the sound itself until its playback in headphones, there is some time within a second. And from the very first day, the user will notice that before to start playing the sound, the headphones will turn on the barely noticeable noise (on the background of the music it is completely lost), and when playback is over - this noise will disappear, while with a sufficiently sharp click, which is high Volume can noticeably hit the ears. However, it is possible to get used enough to this.

And at least these three minuses are already predetermined by the fate of wireless headphones. There is no practical meaning in them. It can be seen that this direction is gradually developing, but specifically at the moment - this is a waste of money. It seems that the market exists in order for it to be at all - and the user still finds. Believe me, freedom from the wires are not worth all the problems described above. Although there are positive moments with such headphones, but my advice to you: either buy expensive Bluetooth headphones, or take good and wired.

Despite the technological achievements, Bluetooth headphones still suffer from some unpleasant problems.

We looked at the most common problems of Bluetooth headphones and found several solutions.

My smartphone can not find Bluetooth headphones

You want to connect headphones to your smartphone, but for some reason headphones are not displayed in the list of Bluetooth devices? Here is a list how to solve the problem:

  • Check if you enable Bluetooth connection on your phone. Surprisingly just skip.
  • Check whether your headphones are compatible with your device and OS. If you are using iPhone, it should work at least on iOS 7, which originally supports Bluetooth Smart Ready. If you are on Android, make sure it works at least on Android 4.3.
  • Make sure your smartphone and headphones are close to each other when you want to connect them. The best way to ensure a good connection is to bring the devices not less than 50 cm from each other.
  • Check the manufacturer recommended by the manufacturer. Not all bluetooth headphones will connect to your phone in the same way; Sometimes it is just as easy as just turning on the headphones, in other cases it is a little more difficult. To avoid problems with the connection of your device, carefully read all the detailed steps about what you should do.
  • Try turning off and turn it on again. This is an old method, but let's take the truth in the eye - sometimes it really works.
  • Turn off or remove all interference. Perhaps for some reason your headphones are trying to connect to another device, and not to your smartphone.
  • Get off from the Wi-Fi router. Perhaps your Wi-Fi router uses the same spectrum as headphones, and thus causes some interference.

My Bluetooth headphones are periodically disconnected

There is nothing more disappointing than listening to music when suddenly your bluetooth headphones are simply disconnected. Sometimes the Bluetooth connection is completely disconnected and makes you connect again, at another time it will disappear for a few seconds before it connects. These problems are easy to solve:

  • Stay within the range of your headphones and smartphones. It is very easy to move away from the smartphone and bluetooth will not work.
  • Remove all unnecessary Bluetooth connections. It is possible that your smartphone is "overloaded" by the number of attempts to connect to it.
  • Make sure your Bluetooth headset is charged. Bluetooth headphones tend to a periodic disconnection with a low battery charge level.
  • Try to turn off the headphones, and then connect them again with your smartphone.

The connection between my headphones and smartphone works unstable

It also often happens that when you are trying to connect your headphones and smartphone together, you either get an error message, or the dispenser process will work unstable - without actual remediation. The simplest solution here:

  • Delete all unused or unnecessary Bluetooth connections. Some devices begin to hang if there are too many devices in the Bluetooth connections list.

If it does not help, you can try any of the other ways that we have already indicated.

I hear noise in Bluetooth headphones

Despite the long way, Bluetooth technology is still susceptible to interference, such as static or crackling noises when you listen to music.

  • First, you must disable or turn off other unused Bluetooth devices in the area.
  • If static will not disappear, try to reboot your headphones (you can easily understand this by contacting the manufacturer's site).
  • Turn on the media player, then turn off the headphones for 30 seconds, and then connect them again.
  • Reduce the distance between your smartphone and headphones, as it also helps to reduce (or even decide) any problems with noise.

All this is proven methods for solving some of the most unpleasant Bluetooth problems, but this is not a complete list. If none of these troubleshooting methods work, it is better to contact the manufacturer.

Have you tried any of these methods to troubleshoot problems with Bluetooth's own devices?

Despite the ease of operation, sometimes we still face definite problems, such as extraneous sounds, similar to hissing and wheezing, because of which the sound quality is generally deteriorating significantly. To eliminate this problem, you need to know the possible reasons for its appearance.

It is important to know that, despite the entire elementality of this device, a person who has not had to faced problems in his work and eliminate them, this problem may seem very serious.

In order to understand where the hiss in the headphones arises, you need to understand a little about how they are arranged. Pay attention to the fact that you constantly hear hissing sounds or only periodically.

One of the reasons why this problem may occur is incorrectly connecting headphones, or rather, the choice of incorrect settings. In addition, if the headphones are not new, check if the contacts are working with which you connect them.

Noise in headphones caused by faulty sound card

Such a part, as a sound card, has the most direct impact on how high-quality melody is reproduced by equipment. If the item is defective, the personal computer cannot accurately transmit sound signals, which is why the normal sound is complemented by hissing, a crash, the sound seems to be "rehearsed" and "jumps". In this situation, only replacing the faulty item will help, and then the sound will no longer be accompanied by outsiders.

Faulty wires

For the correct operation of the headphones and the correct transmission of sounds often corresponds to the manufacturer of the model.

It should be known that there are two types of headphones: wireless and with wire. Outsided sounds, as a rule, appear in models running through a cable connected by a plug. If the copper cable live is damaged or stretched, noise noise and jump-shaped sound interruptions.

The damaged wire often leads to noise in headphones on the iPhone. This is due to the fact that the cable material is thin and flexible, it is easy to break. The conductor with damage sends the sound card to incorrect characteristics of the signals, and this is reflected on the sound. How to eliminate the hoarse of headphones? This can be done, removing the overshadled or bare area of \u200b\u200bthe wire, as a last resort, will have to buy new fittings.

Broken usb input

Incorrect sound may occur after connecting other gadgets to a USB connector. Call the problem can mouse, or defective keyboard. In this case, by pressing the key, you will hear clicks. There are quite objective reasons why it happens.

When the information is transmitted, the load on the PC is raised. To reduce it, you need to do the following:

1. Switch the plug to another port.

2. You can also purchase a splitter and repair old connectors for connecting.

3. Start using wireless devices.

The problem is that very often users do not pay due attention to the computer, they do not immediately repair the emerging problems. As a result, USB connectors one after another come to unsuitability, and only one remains, in which the splitter connects and it is all the load that it becomes the reason for its increase.

How to wear intracanal in-ear headphones

Noise from working with mouse

When you make a scrolling page with the mouse, sometimes you can also notice noise, sometimes they are simply unbearable. Solution of the problem will be the replacement of the mouse, switching the mouse to the neighboring USB port or setting an external sound card.

No grounding sockets

This problem is not often, but still arises, interfering with the normal operation of headphones. The absence of grounding can also cause a cod, clicks and other noise in headphones. If you have already checked the headphones and did not find any problems, check the sockets to which the computer is connected.

This nuance concerns only stationary computers, laptop fees are usually ground at the stage of their production.

When you use headphones connected to a laptop, incorrect sounds are most likely provoked by internal malfunctions of the device. Do not delay with contacting the service center, where your device is distributed for troubleshooting.

Sound source itself does not work correctly

Violation of the rules for using headphones often leads to a violation of their work, and in particular to the sound. Also, problems occur in the work of the main sound source. Rarely, but still occur the driver errors. Program errors and failures in the operation of the operating system cause interference in the form of noise and cod.

The problem can be detected by checking the device using the connection of various headsets. If their work is equally unacceptable - unpleasant sounds will be heard in all headphones, it means that the problem is hiding in the device driver.

If you are used to listening to very high volume music, you can also notice the appearance of hissing and cod. As a rule, it happens if you purchase inexpensive headphones.

There is not enough powerful power supply - another reason for extraneous noise at the sound of headphones (such a problem is sometimes found at the owners of laptops, which have not yet understood with all its features). Eliminate this problem simply using the following prompts.

On your laptop, go to the "Control Panel", then in "System and Security" and, finally, in "Power Supply", and select High Performance Mode. At the end of the setup, check the sound quality in headphones.
