I noticed humming in one channel of my headphones. It goes away when I touch a metal part of my amp/DAC.
I unplug my headphones and they continue to hum when the cord is in close proximity to the amp/DAC. Touching the amp/DAC makes the hum go away.
Unless the headphone cable is unplugged with any part of it touching my plastic desk. Then it picks up much louder hum when I touch the amp/DAC, and it doesn't matter where on my desk the cable is.
