Hi,
I'm new to Head-Fi.org and have been viewing these forums for almost a month now. I finally decided on Beyerdynamic DT-990/600's (just received them last week). Also, I pulled the trigger on the LD MK III yesterday. I'm definitely amazed at the sound quality and I thank Penchum for the wonderful review. The problem I'm having is that I hear a low humming noise at around 11'oclock on the volume dial and it gets louder as I increase the volume. My source is an Auzentech Forte soundcard's front line out (that green 1/4" connector from the D-Sub dongle) to the Little Dot with the cable that was included. So far, i'm loving the sound i'm hearing from it, but the hum at increased volumes is irritating.
I heard a solution is a ground loop isolator or a cheat plug... but i'm unsure which would work in my situation and not give me diminished sound quality or become a fire hazard.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
