I've noticed that too. In this case it's happening when the battery box is
indicating a good charge and it's a MUCH different popping and static.
Thanks for the heads up on the shipping numbers. I'll be sure to get that
the next time.

I don't know if I'd go so far as to say that Lightspeed has fixed their
quality problems. I just sent back my 20-3Gs that I purchased at Sun n
Fun
this year for the second time. I have an intermittent problem with a
loud
pop in the left ear followed by maximum volume static. The only way to
get
rid of it is to turn off the ANR.

Just curious: Does this happen near the end of the battery life?

I've found that right before the batteries give up the ghost, we get all
kinds of fluctuations, pops, and ANR weirdness.

We just pop new batteries in at that point, and all is well again.

If it's still doing it, insist that they send you a new pair. Lightspeed
will also give you a UPS (Fed Ex?) shipping number (so that THEY pay
shipping) if you ask for it.
