Do you have any recordings from you entire collection that don't make the static noise? If you do then it's probably not the headphones.
I own Eminem's "Recovery" and the Black Eyed Peas' "The END" that I do not hear any static noise in, but they are quite different genre of music, and because their songs often have complex background music going on, I don't think I paid much attention to the voice only.
But on my Andrea Bocelli, Sarah Brightman, and Celine Dion CDs where vocal is THE main theme, I think the static noise is a lot more prevalent. I will check out my BEP and Eminem album and see if the static noise also exist there.

static with the headphones plugged into the jack while music is on pause is normal, especially noticeable with a more powerful source/amp combo
Mm.. well to be honest, the only audio equipment I have are my Cowon J3 and Ath-M50. I've yet to plunge into amp and DAC combo as well as headphones that need them... And I don't hear any statics when on pause. =/
