Just wandering how many of you have a hiss-free DX80? Hearing all this talk about hiss has me paranoid. I have been playing various tracks from my 5500+ music library (FLAC files - Lossless) that is loaded on my DX80 trying to listen for the hiss, using Shure SE535 IEM's. Only of a few tracks can I hear any hiss (very little) and I am thinking it is more from the recording than the DX80. Most of my FLAC files when played through the DX80 presents a black background. I even tried to moved my cable around and moving the connection around on the headphone output and still no hiss. Maybe I'm just one of the lucky ones that got a good device or my ears are not that sensitive to detect the hiss (which I don't believe, because my hearing is really good). I ordered my DX80 from B & H Photo on November 19 and it came with fw 1.0.0 (which I immediately updated to 1.1.4).
Anyways just wandering how many of you are enjoying your DX80 without any complications, hiss, etc?
I ordered from amazon may try b and h photo the hiss is coming from my Etymotic Research HF5 @ 16 ohms vs the 30+ on your shures so we really can't say anything until someone compiles a list of a setup that hiss. It could be the dx80 is not fit for sensitive iem's and headphones.
