Hey Head-fi!
I've been following this forum for a few years and figured I'd post my first thread with an issue I'm having.
I currently have 2 different amp/dac setups;
Schiit Modius ->THX789 and Topping D10 ->Atom amp.
I noticed that whenever I plug in my AKG K371 and Tin T2 IEM to either amp when there is no music playing and have high gain on, I can hear a static/white noise. The atom amp isn't so noticeable until I hit about 12 O' clock on the volume, and for the THX789 it becomes audible at 10 O' clock and its mainly in my right ear (I run the Modius and 789 balanced and have swapped cables to make sure that wasn't the culprit).
I don't notice white noise when I run my LCD2C or DT1990's and of course I don't ever use high gain on my K371 or T2's because it's overkill, but I would like to know if it's something to worry about.
Thanks!
