Cheetoque Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 My earphones suddenly made a cracking sound and afterwards it did not produce sound. Why??? Those earphone were expensive. (In my opinion.) Why did it happen anyway? Quote
boomana Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Welcome to head-case. Uh...doubt anyone can tell you why with that little info. You either damaged them or they were faulty or both. Contact Phillips and see about a repair or replacement. Quote
Dusty Chalk Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Try a different amplifier or built-in headphone output connection of a source that has one. I usually associate crackling with the amp. Quote
jinp6301 Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 you probably broke a driver, buy a new one Quote
JBLoudG20 Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Time to purchase a real headphone. Quote
Dusty Chalk Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 you probably broke a driver, buy a new oneHe made it sound like both, which, again, doesn't sound like the headphones, to me. Quote

hirsch Posted January 23, 2008 Report Posted January 23, 2008 My earphones suddenly made a cracking sound and afterwards it did not produce sound. Why??? Those earphone were expensive. (In my opinion.) Why did it happen anyway? My guess, based on the information given, is that your symptoms are consistent with pulling the headphone jack out of its socket. This would produce noise followed by silence. The cure for this one is easy: plug the headphone back in. If that's wrong, why don't you try giving whatever information that you have? What is the complete system that you are using? What tests have you done to test which components of your system are working? If you use an amp, does it still power on? Does it work with other headphones? Does your source power up? Do the headphones work with another source (if available)? yadda yadda yadda... You have more information than you posted, or you can get it, but you need to think through what it might be. If you post no information about the problem, you'll get silly answers if you get anything at all. Quote
