I can get some noise if I have my phone sitting next to the Watson, that isn't what you guys are doing? Or something completely different?
I'm not blaming the Watson, I'm blaming my DAC (since that's what's transferring the raw analog signal). The Watson y'all have at the store is rock silent, likely because you've got dedicated hardware and the cabling is shielded.
Me? I'm at my desktop which is full of USB hookups and cables absolutely everywhere. I've got no doubts there's just noise in the system, trying to decide if using a better DAC (a dedicated DAC instead of an audio interface) or something like a Jitterbug would be the best course of action.
FWIW I've had this same issue pop up now and again with every amp I've used, which is why I'm inclined to suggest it's earlier in the chain.
