When I have my headphones plugged in to anything, periodically it will have a crackling noise -- that, quite frankly hurts my ears sometimes and freaks me out! I haven't had these headphones very long and this just started happening about a week or two ago. There is no change as far as sound -- the sound isn't muffled or altered in any way.

- Check for debris in the headphone port on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.
- Check your headphone cable, connector, remote, and earbuds for damage, like wear or breakage.
- Look for debris on the meshes in each earbud. To remove debris, gently brush all openings with a small, soft-bristled brush that's clean and dry.
- Firmly plug your headphones back in. If your iOS device has a case, remove the case to get a firm connection.
