Sorry, I should have said that.

Could this be a Headphone impedance matching problem ? The HP amp (a Consonance Cyber-20)showed no "speck"(or rather "micro speck") of hum when I'm using the HE-6 which are much lower impedance than the HD800.

This is really not an issue that is interfering with my enjoyment unless this is somehow robbing the amp of performance in someway I'm not aware of.

(Are any of us in this hobby sane enough to ignore problems that are probably not problems; Thanks, I'll go back in my corner now)
