Have you reduced the gain on the H10 to -12? That might reduce the buzz. Can you borrow a DAC from someone to try out whether that will fix it? Is it possibly a ground loop issue? If so, try moving to a different power outlet.
Sweet, thanks very much for the advice, I will try that! I've heard that some IEMs can be quite sensitive, so I just figured that was probably it. I haven't really read up yet on how all this stuff actually works as far as ohms, impedance, gain, and all that good stuff. Just trying to enjoy some great sound for now!
If anyone has any recommendations for a good mid-range DAC to pair with the H10, I'd really appreciate it! And by mid-range, I'm talking like up to maybe $2-400 (as much as I'd love to splurge for something like the Gustard X-20, I'm sure it would be wasted on my undeveloped aural palette). Currently got it hooked up to my PC motherboard's onboard sound, which I'm positive is less than ideal.
Thanks again all!
