Had the exact experience of Amandarae with my Nelson Dac, nothing to worry about.
MSB Link and static electricity
In the winter around here it gets very dry. Dry enough to create a lot of static. Today I accidently touched my MSB Link, saw a spark, and the Link stopped working. The only light that stayed on was the power light. There was no analog output. I unplugged the power supply, and replugged to no avail. I then shut the whole thing off and went out to eat. When I returned two hours later and turned it back on, it worked. I thought for sure that I had somehow fried a chip. Has anyone else had this happen?
