hanz0 Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 is this really neccesary. it says in the manual that it is. what do these clips do to the cord that makes it so important? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJ_Palmer Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 They're for filtering out unwanted electromagnetic (RF/microwave etc.) interference. A guess, but possibly needed nowadays because of all the mobile phone masts and power lines etc. that are being put up...I usually remove mine, but if you get a lot of static and distortion coming through on your recordings/headphones you might want to leave them on...

hanz0 Posted January 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 thanks. i was wondering what they were, cause all it looked like was something to fold the cord. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobS Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 They are for meeting FCC RF emission requirements. That is, RF put out by your MD. The cables can act like antennas and emit RF signals. They do not affect your recording Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
