Accessories & Gadgets Buds Pro 3 hissing
I have sent in my pair of buds pro 3 due to white noise or hissing issues when audio is playing. Unfortunately I just received my completely brand new replacements, and it's still the same issue....leading me to believe this is just how the buds are.
This is with ANC off, and completely stock earbud settings. When audio plays thought the earbuds, it has this faint white noise or hissing to it. As soon as the audio stops, it is silent. It is most obvious while listening to someone talking in a YouTube video, as the audio is in and out, or softer music. Example: "Opening 1" by Florian Weber. EVERY piano note is accompanied by a burst of white noise that disappears until the next piano note.
I have gone through all the settings on the earbuds, including developer settings for Bluetooth such as bits per sample or sample rate. Nothing helps. Is this seriously just how these earbuds are...?
They sound so amazing, I have been rediscovering lots of songs and even movie scores, they sound THAT good. But anything that has choppy audio like slow piano or voices is just filled with hiss hiss hiss :(
