My K5 Pro (AKM version), connected thru USB to a Win 11 PC doesn’t have such problem, but I don’t use the Win audio stack. Only ASIO audio protocol with Foobar app for local files and Qobuz Studio Win app for streaming.- ahmonge

Dan Clark Audio Aeon 2 Noire Discussion/Impressions Thread
Excellent for blues and jazz, the bass a bit too much to my liking for large orchestral masses, but is ok for baroque, renaissance, or small ensembles. Can you listen to classical music with the Noires? Yes, of course. Is this the musical genre where it stands out the most? No- ahmonge

Dan Clark Audio E3 Review: Interview, Measurements, Impressions
My comment refers exclusively to over ear headphones, since their passive isolation capacity -from my point of view- is insufficient to enjoy the details provided by audiophile-type headphones when using them outdoors; I prefer less able headphones with the noise floor lowered thanks to ANC...- ahmonge
