White noise coming from my Essence STX from 44.1KHz | Page 3 | Headphone Reviews and Discussion - Head-Fi.org

Changing opamps doesn't fix the issue. I've tried several different configurations and I'm currently using LME49860s in I/V.

So can we say that the problem is in the headphone amp indeed?

"Noise" is never a good thing on sound quality. I don't have that problem since I configured to 192kHz @ 24-bit all the time.
