I tried a bunch of tests, with unmodified SB3, with a different DAC, with the clock off on the DAC and could not reproduce the problem. Unfortunately (fortunately?), I have been unable to reproduce it with my orignal setup either. It was not as dependable as I thought. I guess I'm out of options for narrowing down the problem for now.
However, I'll include a comment for the designer of the RAKK DAC : > We have seen crackling in the gaps before. It is somehow related to what > the transport is doing as it switches tracks.

Since the circuitry on the RAKK dac doesn't mute between > tracks there is nothing we can do to eliminate the crackling. That is, > nothing short of going to an ASRC, which we did with the RAKK dac Mark > II. The Mark II does not exhibit the crackling or (since it doesn't > have a Tent Clock) the power on tone. -- Jitterbug ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jitterbug's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4955 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=37264 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
