    New, Burson Conductor 3 Reference: Dual 9038 DAC, 7.5Wpc Head Amp, Preamp, Changeable Opamps

    Sorry, no idea about the AKGs, they were OEMs. I guess they are less sensitive than Senns, because the noise floor is much lower but it is still noticeable.

    JadeAudio EA3(FiiO'Sub-brand)-1 BA(Knowles) +1 Dynamic 0.78mm 2pins in-Ear earphone

    Thank you. Is the sound difference worth upgrading with a cable costing nearly as much as the earphones themselves?

    A newbie question: can I make the EA3 balanced by just changing the cable? If yes, which cable would you recommend?

    For sure the M17 is coming, featuring dual AK4501EQ dac chips. Before the M19 hits the market with 2 X AK4503EQ.

    I have noticed mild background noise with certain high sensitivity headphones. It is more like a faint hiss, which you forget once you start listening to the music. But I agree, it is present.

    New, Burson Playmate 9038 DAC, 2Wpc HeadAmp, Preamp, Changeable opamps.

    Have you switched the input? If yes, many Android phones struggle with the bit-perfect output to an external dac. You would need a dedicated music app, something like UAPP, which can bypass the Android drivers.
