I feel like if you’re experiencing sibilance at this level, it’s not your amp that’s causing it. I mean, just EQ it out?
Which DAC are you using ?Guys, how can I reduce the sibilance on the MJ3, even if it's light (but still annoying)
I use a Pontus II DAC and a Hermes DDCWhich DAC are you using ?

I hope you do the same for me too.I had some light sibilance on mine when it was new. It disappeared after a couple of weeks on its own.

I use a Meze Elite headset which hasn't given me any problems before.Which headphones are you using? I doubt it’s the Pontus
I bought a used one but that’s what I have heard from users that sibilance goes away after couple of hundred hours of use.I hope
Sell it and buy a Mentor...
Im teasing but also not. Not poopooing Mjolnir, though, more just gassing up Mentor- which is fair and it's worthy. Costs a little more than MJ3 but not significantly. Synergy with a Pontus II >> Meze Elite via Mentor would be there.
What amp were you using with the Pontus 2 before the Mj3 and did that setup had any sibilance?I use a Meze Elite headset which hasn't given me any problems before.
MJ3 need 100 hrs + burn in. The DAC is also a possible issue. I had the same sibilance problem until the burn in time was reached.Guys, how can I reduce the sibilance on the MJ3, even if it's light (but still annoying)
second the tube pre-amp idea.MJ3 need 100 hrs + burn in. The DAC is also a possible issue. I had the same sibilance problem until the burn in time was reached.
A cheaper and quicker fix is to preamp with a tube amp into the MJ3. Get the 99 dollar version Schiit is putting on sale.
