Audio Hiss

[skerper]

I am getting a hissing sound on my Axim x30 when I play audio. Has anyone else had this problem and if so how did you resolve it?

Some players have pre-amps so you could turn down the gain so to speak eliminating most if not all of the hiss depending on the file. I personally used TCPMP (Then known as BetaPlayer) when I had my X30/High.

Do you mean hissing when using headphones? If so, you might try different headphones. I tried the following on my X30:
Sony MDR-010 headphones, no hissing, average sound quality, must turn volume up.
Koss SparkPlug ear buds, lots of hissing, very sensitive, very loud, must turn volume down.
Koss KSC-35 ear clip headphones, very little hissing, good bass, my favorite.

Are those in the ear plugs you're using elag99?

The Sony MDR-010 are your typical headphones with a metal band over the head.
The Koss SparkPlugs are the in the ear type that uses a memory foam ear piece.
The Koss KSC-35 fit on the outside of the ear. There is no metal band over your head. The speakers have a "C" shaped clip that fits the backside of the ear.

DO NOT USE 16 ohm headphones use 32 ohm (or more) instead
