Hi

what woiuld cause my SP Extreme Platinum to make noise only with the GS'1000's? With all my other phones it's dead silent at all levels of volume with no music playing?

Thanks
Frank

The fact that the GS-1000 retrieves more detail.

You probably have tube hiss going on....

Hi thanks for the input

I tried changing the single tube, and that didn't help, Its not really a hiss or a humm its sort of both together. Its pretty load you can hear it in lulls in the music. I didn't have the problem with my first pair of GS's. The first pair was defective and was returned. I am not saying it's the phones as far as I know, it might also be the amp?

Thanks
Frank

Just curious. How did you solve your problem? Just wondering since I just got a PPX3 Slam. Thanks in advance

Hey Laine

I had taken the pads off and had the drivers real close to my ears and I guess that's why I heard it so much, With pads back on it's quiet, weird ha.
