Latency and dropout... common when using Windows networking for music servers. It's the time it takes to buffer fill and has nothing to do with the electricity in the wall.
New system with periodic sound dropouts
Within the last 2 months I've gotten new speakers (Monitor Audio Gold 300), pre-amp (Primare Pre32) and power amp (Primare A32). Since setting it up, there are times when my DAC loses the signal and no music plays for 1 - 2 seconds. Other times music plays flawlessly with no dropouts. I just tested the outlet where my gear is plugged in and got voltage readings between 123.5 - 125.9 (but I only had one drop out and that was earlier in the day). My subdivision is less than 5 years old and all of our utilities are underground.
I've been considering an AC conditioner or regenerator. Do I really need one?
If power isn't the problem does anyone have an idea as to why my DAC sometimes loses the music signal?
