HDP owners: I just want to verify something I think might be a little unusual is, in fact, normal:
With the HDP volume dial lower than the 9 o'clock position (volume barely up), I hear a very noticeable hiss coming through my cans. Like sound you would expect to hear from speakers turned up too high. When I turn it athe 10 o'clock position and the hiss disappears completely.
My typical listening volume is somewhere between 11 and 2, depending on my mood, so it doesn't bother me or anything like that.
Also, that the sound doesn't really increase linearly. As in, the volume level increase when going from 12 to 1 is noticeably less than going from 1 to 2. It's more of a bell shape in terms of volume increase.
I just want to make sure nothing is wrong or unusual with the unit. Otherwise, everything is fantastic.
Thanks, gents.
