Cball, I can detect no hiss. A friend of mine who has Klipsch Ref7's, Anthem AVM20 and Parasound 2200II amp was amazed as well.

JAMMINGC -
When you say no hiss, do you mean with your ear right up to the tweeter of the 30's. If so that is awesome. My 20s have hiss out to about 1 foot with my acurus amps.

Cball, yes I hear no noise with my ears up against the 30's. But this quietness could be becasue I only have digital connections to the 950 and when no source is detected the 950 has auto mute I beleive. Anyway, with source material playing at low levels I hear no hiss, only the source material. BTW my ampage is Parasound HCA1500a powering the 30's and B&K ST3140 powering my Klipsch center/surrounds. I waited quite a while before ordering the 950 becasue of the hiss issue, but when they came out with the Soundhound version, I thought I would give it a try, especially with the 30 day in home moneyback guarantee. I have been very pleased with the 950's sound and will be keeping it.

I meant Scott, not Cball in my last reply, sorry.
