My pair also hisses. Very disappointed.

Edit, wired or bluetooth regardless of volume. Constant hiss.

Shipment picked up, delivers Wednesday

Gods help us if MichaelSD ends up not liking his Mobius due to hiss or some other issue.

Or perhaps I’m just a ”Canuck” from Edmonton And if you must know, I’m a Winnipeg Jets Fan from way back. LOL

So..... I have to ask. When you get aggravated with someone , have you ever just told them to "Go 'Canuck' yourself" ? (Go ahead & use that one ; Like Jimmy Durante "I got a million of em !!!!)

My little brother had hn-700 from creative in 2005 or so. They were god awful and had a pink noise and some kind of weird pain inducing pressure on the ears that haunts me to this day.
I REALLY hope they can sort it out.
Still I imagine it not being noticeable when in use sooo... I'll wait to call out the apocalypse.

It's not too bad when in use. But when you pause the music and hear it, it's kinda annoying.

It's most annoying when the music gets quiet and you hear it. Ugh.

I'm surprised this wasn't mentioned in the developer models that were sent out for pre-production reviews. Hopefully, it's a fix a firmware update can solve.

That really doesn't sound right..... It's one thing if it's not dead quiet and black, with a tad of pink noise, but it's significant if it bleeds into quieter passages. Sounds like an issue that will have to be addressed under warranty after the initial rush quiets down. If all units have it and it wasn't manufactured as intended, this could be a really big issue that's challenging to resolve.

Yea this is worse than the N90Q I had that I was also told was hiss-less by sales reps. Both headphones sound great but I won't tolerate hiss

There is ONE possibility in my mind that might save this situation.
When you play your own mic signal over your headphones and use mic amplification you often have the same issue.
I'm praying to god that this whole noise floor situation is actually caused by the mic electronic and therefore can be fixed via firmware updates.

Very pleased for everyone that got his Mobius already.
Let's hope the hiss issue gets sorted quickly and that won't affect other headsets.

Yeah I'm hoping it's firmware fixable and that I won't have to send it out for RMA. It does sound really excellent.

Have you tried turning the mic pot up and down to see if it affects the noise levels? I assume you've been using it without the mic plugged in.

Which input has the hiss on your unit?

Yeap. I've muted the mic. Adjusted mix volume. Plugged the mic in. Unplugged the mic. Unmuted it. Tried Bluetooth, aux and USB-C. The noise is always there for me. It's not loud but it's there.

All.

Can you try a movie on your PC in 5.1 or 7.1? Maybe Netflix? You will be really impressed with it's surround sound capabilities.
