Well, if this hiss level (–140 dB) is audible to you, you get hiss from every other electronics component as well, and even more so.
It also has to do with the power band. Hugo and similar powerful amps have too much power at lower ohms.
That's why SE846 does not hiss with all sources. Sensitive IEMs hissing with powerful amps is not something new.
