Is it normal for headphones to give off distortion when lowering / increasing my amp volume?  Other than that though there is no distortion.  Been curious about this for a while.

It's possible you have a dirty or bad potentiometer. I'm guessing changing the volume causes you to get static/pops?

Just a little static but not every time.

Could be a pot that has some bad spots.  If it's a big bother to you warranty, try cleaning yourself, or replacing yourself are all options.  I've seen some pots act up a little if the mounting nut is tightened too much.  Just a thought.  GL with whatever you decide

I usually recommend turning off the amp, and spin the volume pot up/down real fast. Check if the problem still persists..otherwise some contact cleaner helps, worst case you have to replace it.

Yeah I've actually done this before and I remember the problem going away. Did it again just last night and there was no more static when moving the volume knob. Weird....but oh well at least I know how to fix it.
