[size=small][size=10pt]One little problem with the Go-vibe Mini Box which I just got today - I am getting this constant slight background noise (static) - is this supposed to happen? It is just noticeable when I got music playing quietly but it becomes very obvious when the music is not playing or my headphones are just plugged into the go vibe with no input. A defective unit perhaps? Or is this normal?[/size][/size]

[size=x-small][size=10pt]Further when I got the amp plugged in, as I turn the music up louder the sound becomes muddled and starts "fizzling" (for a lack of better term).[/size][/size]

It is most likely hissing, which is normal for lower end portable amp to have and a sign that your headphone is too sensitive and likely need no amping in most cases.
