Got a pop sound in one speaker when connecting with 3.5mm Jack

Hi!

Im new to hi-fi headphones and i just wonder about one thing.

When one Connect with jack it comes crackling noise and thats not harmfull and normal i think, but yesterday i connected a jack into B&O beoplay 3gen headphones, that have a single jack cable if one does not want to use it with Bluetooth.

I didnt knew i had not fully connected it, so i had only sound in one of the speakers.

When i rotated the jack the sound changed from one to the other speaker, and when i fully connected it all the way in i got some kinda one single pop sound in right speaker, anyone know what that is? Could it be something wrong, or is it normal?

Thanks for Feedbacks on this :slight_smile:

3.5mm jacks can short out during plugging or unplugging causing pops. Should be allright.

I would advise to always turn down the volume on the device you plug into and the device sending through the cable.

Thanks for the reply!

Yes good advice, i had low volume, is that ok or should one have zero volume when connecting?
