Oh right, forgot to mention bitrate. Most of my stuff is at least 192kbps, usually higher, but it doesn't seem to affect the hiss at all. I mean they hiss when there's no music playing, so I'm sure it's not the music.
I'm not sure how much burn-in will affect the hiss since they were already 3 months old when I bought them.
Speaking of tips, I'm not entirely happy with the fit I'm getting. I have to use the bi-flanges to get a good seal, yet it doesn't feel like it for some reason. I like having that intimate feeling of sound with iem's. Will Sony Hybrids or Shure olives help with this? (I've never used foam tips before).
Also, does anyone make oval shaped tips besides Klipsch? I love those things, best fit ever imo. I wish they could fit the 900's.
These hiss a little bit with the Cowon S9, and alot with certain computers, nothing are wrong with your phones. As far as tips, Sony hybrids, the balance tips, and large stock tips, or medium, also Phonak pfe large/medium.
