Still this is not normal. The nominal output level of the FA101 is
+4dBu, nothing special, with a S/N ratio of over 100 dB. The maximum
SPL of the ADAM A7 is somthing like 105 dB, so even if its nominal
input level is 20dB lower than the output of the FA101 the noise
level should be 25dB, which is imperceptible even in a very quiet
room.
Something is not working right here.
Perhaps there's a hardware problem with the particular FA101 in question?
