namaiki:
Those headphones seem to be 8 ohms. Super sensitive.

^ This. Easy to drive.
I suspect it’s probably either wonky hphones, or lousy front panel audio-out. adapters themselves shouldn’t be introducing static, unless they’re really loose-fitting. If you’ve tried a bunch and none of them eliminate the issue then it’s probably not the adapter’s fault.
Bob2004:
Dodgy front-panel audio is a very common issue (especially with Antec cases, I've noticed) - I get terrible static through my headphones when plugged into the front panel of my PC. It happens with my speakers too, but I can manipulate them to keep it to a minimum.
Make sure to try plugging them directly into your motherboard/sound card too, if you haven't already.
kitamesume:
^ it happened to me with a local case, what the cause was the ground of the USB and the ground of the jacks were shared, cutting the connection took the static out, oh yea, sometimes this affects the backpanel as well.
edit: i meant isolating the two grounds from each other.
Meomix:
Well cleaning out all of the adapters points worked for awhile until the static returned, then i blocked a random adapter point with toilet roll and surprisingly it seems to be doing the job for now.
Oh and that previous thread where i was getting random BSOD's the problem was a improperly connected internal hardisk.
