i've noticed it before, never paid much attention, but now i really notice it. using the Sony MDR-7506s i just bought, it's really goddamn loud. is this a common issue? will an external soundcard solve the problem?

it has never registered in Acid 7, nor any other meters in other programs, so i'm thinking it's strictly to do with the processing of the internal soundcard itself. it's always there in the background, like some humming gnat.

it's the ground of your PSU, gone if you pull the plug and work on battery?
