Sounds like a ground issue with your power supply. Try plugging your power directly into the wall socket and bypass the power strip if you're using one.

I read that someone had that trouble. Search with this: "Samson GO MIC USB Condenser static or interference HELP!"

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.

Do all of yours make that clicking noise when it is on? It seems like it shouldn't make that sound?

Not heard in our very quiet house. If only one device makes the sound, the cause might be due to the nature of the load. A load that requires too much current when "cold" might be causing the overloaded switching devices to produce small vibrations, which you hear. I would replace device if sound is only with one device connected to a resistive load needing well under 15 A. -- Too little information to speculate more. Good luck.

No that is not normal. I have had that happen to two different M-Audio USB interfaces that I've owned, both of them different models. With both devices, they failed to work completely, and one of them even emitted a loud clicking noise. It is broken. While this scenario is not how the device is supposed to operate, it is normal for M-Audio devices as they break in this manner often.

I've had that problem myself but it seems sporadic. It can be frustrating . It almost seems it has a warm up period. After I play music for a while , it seems to stop doing this. I'm not the only one saying this . Some of the people who gave reviews on Amazon have this same problem . So it seems not to be a defect. If it is , there are quite a few defective speakers out there.

there is some static noise yes..as with many amps...but if it is minimal when playing..you are good. If not, I would contact the seller.

the sizzle you hear might just be static but if its loud enough that its distracting its probably a defective unit. a little static is normal with these things. just a little tho..

No, I actually looked for the same thing but once i turned on the device you can turn the volume to an extended level before you hear the static kicking in.

Yes, the clicking noise seems to be a 'normal' thing. Mine has done it from the beginning. I was not as worried about it as several reviews I read before purchasing mentioned the same clicking noise. The noise has continued and the mixer works great. (I owned for 1 year). Soooo I guess it is to be expected -- ie 'normal'!

The machine makes a loud click before playing or recording. It does not affect performance. We find newer electronics noisier than our older ones.

It depends, some are noisy, but if its a "click" or a tapping sound then I would worry. COntact WD if you have concerns, they are very nice and helpful and they have a great return/ exchange service.

check the wire connection. I have to wiggle mine around to stop static, loss of sound in one ear, and clicking. I always press my connector in firmly to be sure. If that doesn't work, I'd suggest trying new speakers.

I have not had any static noise; the sound is clear no matter what I have on around it. This includes lights (though I don't have touch lights), timers, electric fireplace switch, dimmer switches, electric heater, wifi and other computers, microwave, and phones. Hope that helps!

Thank you! That was definitely part of my problem. One last question: when opening, I hear a pleasant ratcheting sound, which I don't hear when closing. Does yours also not make that sound in one direction?

I have not had any static issues but I don't use the speaker concurrently with my computer.

Haven't noticed any clicking from mine, but then I'm not always in the particular room in which we use it. Is it like an electrical snapping sound, or more like a trickling water sound?
