Is there a list of the headphones that match best with this amp and its SE ports?

 

[reprobyte]

I had a V200 and a V281. Could hear hum from the transformer in both when using IEMs. The V281's hum was about twice as loud which is expected considering it is essentially a double V200 with two transformers. They are definitely not the cleanest sounding amps.

Can you recommend me any IEMs for Violectric, which ones are a good match, I have the V220 so can yuo recommend what you use on your V200?

You could use an iFi ieMatch with the Andromeda. I guess the best "match" otherwise would be an IEM with low sensitivity? I don't have any low enough where I couldn't hear the hum without the ieMatch.

$1200,- seems a bit much if you ask me..and I loved this amp, shame..

922 € in Europe. Had it on my wishlist at Thomann for a while hoping for a price decrease, but it never did and I bought something else.

$1200 is a lot for an amp with audible transformer hum and a resale price around $400.

I have to say I've never heard it in my units

never heard this said before and mine was dead silent

I hear it with IEMs. I know "these aren't meant for IEMs", but I have much cheaper amps that are silent and can drive regular headphones just as well.

I wonder why you seem to be the only one dealing with this humming and noise issue ?

How many people did you poll? FWIW, the same humming with my HPA V281, just twice as loud, which makes sense since it's basically a double V200, with two transformers.
