I have an Opera Consonance headphone amp and it hums quite loudly through the headphones. There are other reports online of the same thing so I think it's normal for this amp unfortunately. I have an Auralic solid state headphone amp here now and it doesn't hum whatsoever so I don't think I have a ground loop issue. Is there anything I can do? I've tried switching tubes and carefully adjusting the hum potentiometers.
