    What do you mean, digital headphones?

    And also, why would you want some?

    Having any sort of a decent DAC in headphones would be expensive and they would be bigger and heavier than necessary. You're better off with a decent set and decent amp

    Hmmm, I don't think digital headphones are the way...

    I assume you're running soundstorm/something like it? Have you checked that the mic/line inputs are fully muted? I think that's the most common cause of the problem...
