Does it block out the speakers? I purchased an "iGuy" but not sure if it is a knock-off because my kids complained that they couldn't hear the sound.

It's possible you purchased a knock off because the sound works perfectly fine with the two iGuys we have.

Not for me. In fact I returned mine. The sound kept going in and out for no reason, and since it was brand new - I was scared that one day I wouldn't have any sound at all. I returned it while there was still a 'return policy' available.

Well you should be able to see on the picture I posted in the fall it appears to have a small capacitor that's on the speaker. (just checked, picture is gone) But the actual bass blocker is separate. Depending on what your powering it with I found the bass blocker wasn't that good. low power it should be fine but when I threw 50 watts at it I couldn't tell that difference on or off.

These things are awesome. You attach the bass drum mute with Velcro and all the drums are dampened enough. Play while people are home without being annoying, seems like I just close the door and they can barley hear me. Hope this helps! Keep drumming man!

There are no "flaps" covering the speakers like the ones that cover the plug in locations. The case itself does cover the speakers but have cut outs where the speakers are and have screens to help protect the speakers. It does not affect volume or quality in any way. You won't be sorry going with the case! Best one I've had!

They do. Tested mine 2 days ago and they muffled the sound while still allowing me to hear someone walking up behind me

It greatly muffles it. I forgot to mention that initially in my review. Volume maxed out you can hear somewhat clearly but it's much quieter since it's covered.

as best as I can tell... no. What I hear when talking to people seems the same with the case or without. People seem to hear me the same too. Can't say with regards to external speakers. I normally hook it up to a small speaker set when playing music. Hope that helps!

THe background noise is muffled but not completely drowned out. Hope this helps you :)

yes, you can still hear the tv - that is why i didn't like the product, got this for my grandddaughter at college thinking it would block out speakers so it didn't bother her roommate and it didn't.

I've read the same thing. Many have said that the speakers channels (2) are muffled and it appears that Zagg now realizes their mistake. I wonder how soon they will ship the "corrected" version to market. As it stands now, this would be a showstopper for me.

This happened to me as well. Somehow I think they manufactured the speaker to actually install buttons that don't do a darn thing. My speakers buttons don't do nothing as well its jus not yours. Hope I was at least of some help.

I don't find that it blocks sound very well. I use it to listen to music on my smartphone while walking, and I can still hear other noise with the earphones on. They work well enough for my purpose, though. Not as good as Bose...

On my Samsung TV I have mine plugged into the "Audio Out" outlet and others can hear the sound as well as the sound going through my BaseStation. On my other TV I have a BaseStation plugged into the sound system device and it blocks the sound for others in the room. So it's a matter of experimenting which plug works.

its really weird that I got this question today. Up until about 3 days ago it was perfect. People could hear from quite a distance. Now in the car people cannot understand what I'm saying. Its very sensitive but it seems like you're not blocking noise. Its not blocking noise. I was thinking of calling them to find out what was up. Been real disappointed lately period last 3 4 days

I have two sets of this particular speaker system. Mine work great!Hmmm, don't tell anyone okay? I did a dumb thing and my speakers wouldn't work! So I order new ones...same brand.Look at the bottom part of your monitor (screen). There is a little icon for "speaker" on the lower right side of your computer screen.By accident, I turned my speakers off. I thought there was something wrong with my old Logitech speakers. So? I ordered more. Guess what! There was absolutely nothing wrong with my old speakers BUT! These are much more clear and the volume is louder.I couldn't be happier.

Cloth is virtually opaque. Speakers are not visible behind the black grill cloth I installed on several different speakers both vintage and contemporary. Could you not return it, if it doesn't meet your expectations (before it is cut, of course)?
