Sounds to me like you are hearing noise in your source or source components. You could have the volume up too loud, or have an amp which doesn't have a very low sound floor, or all your recordings could be poorly made, in decreasing order of likelihood. Just my guesses, anyway.
Um... this sounds like tinnitus, actually.
After using iems, I can hear some sort of distortion on almost any music. Is it always there, but don't notice it and then once you learn how to detect it, it is hard to miss?
The sound I can hear is in both ears, with multiple iems, and with regular size headphones. Sounds like tearing paper slowly, thin tissue paper rustling, like squishing that green foam block florists poke fake flowers into for an arrangement, crinkling up newspaper, the extra noise you hear when a record is playing nothing (no music, just dry record track sound)..etc These are all examples of the sound in one way or another that are mixed real low into the music sound. I listen to a lot of death metal and I am guessing the quality may have always been crapty, I just never noticed it.
I ordered a personal battery operated micro cmoy amp in case the signal needs more power, and of course the headphone volume will be dropped.
Personally I take a mp3 file for instance. Say its 128kbps then I use a file converter and convert the mp3 at 128kbps to a wave file format at 1536kbps which turn it into a lossless audio file.

I tunes really only allows you to use apple lossless which I personally don't like.
However the problem is. The way I do it I have to manually load in the songs and edit the album and artist. Personally its not really hard and doesn't really take a lot of time. Its just annoying itunes doesn't locate and add the wave files for you.
You habe to also edit in prefrence where your wave files are so when you add in the files itunes recognizes where the files are at.
I rip all my songs to the highest quality windows media player lets me rip them at whixhis like 14xxkbps then I can take that file and farther convert it with software just from wave to wave but it seems to give me a slightly higher kbps rate about 100 more kbps.
Now I know this sounds extreme however if tou are using digital files and you have a superb audio setup your files become the weakest link so reguardless of how extreme it seems extracting every last little bit imo is important.
Also you can copy and paste a whole album in wave file format to itunes. Alls you have to do is going on right click edit info and add in the artist and title of the album. Make sure you go into the prefrences and change where the locate is that your itunes is searching for the wave file at if its on your desktop in a file folder make sure under prefrences itunes knows where to look for the file folder.
Right click the file them go to details and the kbps will be there. Be it 128 or 1536kbps your file will have a bit rate.
