Sounds like the muting circuit on the DAC is not working properly. Several recent DAC's have this problem. The muting circuit is supposed eliminate this "click" sound when the DAC loses digital lock (briefly) during inter-track skip. Does the DAC have a "lock" indicator? -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...
