Hi all
I recently acquired some Sennheiser IE8s and thought I'd give them a whirl with my PS Audio GCHA. Since the GCHA uses gain cell tech there is no issue with channel imbalance at low volume unlike my other headamps.
The results were horrible - huge amounts of constantly-changing background noise. Ugh.
Has anyone else tried this combination? Is this just how the amp behaves with high-sensitivity IEMs or is there a problem somewhere? Any advice will be gratefully received...
