Headphoneus Supremus
The second A306 arrived today. It shipped out from the same Amazon warehouse at the same time as my first one, but they got separated in Germany for some reason.
Anyway, this second one (with a really low serial number) does have the issue, and the difference is very noticeable. I'm in the slightly odd position of having two of these in front of me — one with the issue, one without — to perform direct comparisons with, at least until Monday when the bad one will be going back. Let me know if I can do anything interesting to compare (that won't affect my ability to return it — no disassemblies! ).

I wish I had some ideas to test... Maybe graph both on the same graph for a direct comparison with all else being the same. This way no one can say we measured wrong.
