Hi, it's me again...
Haven't really time.
Anyway. I'm using the Sony MDR-XB700 with the Total Airhead on high gain. There is a rather loud hiss without load (when running empty). Sure the low gain has much, much less hiss, but the volume is unacceptably low.
I'm using a line-out from my iPod Classic 160GB, late 2009 version.
Is this a fault or normal? My previous cheap amp (Fiio E5) hissed this much too, but that's just really cheap and I expected the Total Airhead to be deafeningly quiet.
PS: For those of you saying "too loud", my music is all gained down to under 85dB.

Sorry people, please ignore this post. Was ear problem. Wax. Washed it out, went back to low gain. Dead quiet now.

That's uh...[cough] Summer Glau. My favorite actress as River (Firefly, Serenity) and Cameron (TSCC).
Cool, eh?

You kinda remind me of all the fans on that site until it got shut down.
