Nils,
this "internal" noise you experience might be a defect of your specific unit, as no-one else reported such a problem.
From another post I saw that you seem to live in Germany. If you're not too far away from Munich (or don't mind travelling long distances... :-)), I can offer you to try my empeg in your car to see if anything changes. Just email me at [email protected].
