My earbuds
Posted: Wed Dec 05, 2007 9:21 pm
My earbuds aren't working very well. I just got them with the Zune, and they're failing on me. I've had the Zune for like 2 weeks, and the stock earbuds are actually pretty good. However, today when I turned the device on, the music would play, but without low tones. Its hard to explain. The bass will play, but then I cant hear the voice unless I turn it up to level 20 (which is brain peircing if working correctly). Other songs will just have no beat at all, where you might not hear a single instrument.
Now, the wires are perfectly fine. There is a TINY, VERY tiny tear in the plastic covering of the wire so I can see a very small bit of copper-like wire. However, I can't see how that'd be a problem. I put the earbuds in my computer and I got the same results.
One small solution (although really homo) is where I can put the earbud jack into the Zune device about 1/4 or 2/4 in and it'll play the song perfectly, but if I put the whole jack in like its supposed to be, the sound will just cut off and become terrible. The input jack looks exactly like another pair of working headphones, if anything, they're in better condition.
Anyways... Is there any solution, or should I just get some of those sound-canceling earbuds I hear so much about..
