Is there a benefit in using additional amplification (CMOY and such) with IEM-s?
I have a Sennheiser cx 300 ii (16 ohm) and a CMOY. As a source I use my smartphone.
The smartphone itself has a good volume level, so I am not adding CMOY into the chain to increase the overall volume.
I was wondering does adding CMOY bring anything into the overall sound quality.
From what I am able to tell:
- If i set my smartphone volume to half and bring the volume up by using CMOY, it adds a noticeable level of white noise.
- If i set my volume to max, the level of white noise is about the same.
Is the added amount of white noise normal?
Are there any benefits in using CMOY?
