Hi,
I'm using my headphone with my laptop through wired connection, and my headphone makes hum noise whenever I'm in the following situation:
The picture is a bit simplified because actually I have two outlets. However, even if I connect my laptop into one outlet and my electric pad into the other, I can hear the same noise.
Conversely, I don't have hum noise if I don't touch any device using ungrounded plug while I'm wearing my headphone.
Moreover, I also don't have hum noise if the grounded plug is disconnected from the laptop while I'm using any ungrounded device.
In this context, I'm finding what's the best way to deal with this hum noise. For instance, I'm wondering if using an usb dac (e.g. Sonata HD Pro?) between me and the headphone could reduce the noise, or I'm also wondering if I should buy a 3.5mm isolate in order to deal with the case. Thank you for reading and please let me know if you have any thoughts!
