design can mitigate. In the case of IE headphones, noise can be minimized or all but eliminated by reducing
the amplifier's gain. But to do that, the advantage the amp offers to OE headphone users would be
sacrificed. Performance benefits for one type of product diminishes those of the other. As always, effective
engineering requires compromise..In this regard, the NuForce Icon Series of products offer good, real-
world solutions. Noise will be low in some cases, and in others, quite imperceptible. Most importantly, OE
headphone users will benefit from the power they require.
