What's wrong with my system?


I have a Krell KPS20il CD/DA/Preamp that I am using as my preamp direct to a Pass X350 amp.
I have my DSS sat dish and Sony DVP9000 dvd player both hooked up to the digital inputs of the Krell.
Everything sounds great, except on a few DVD's played through the Sony and a few DSS stations, also. I get what sounds like loud jitter static and no music sound on these few exceptions mentioned. Why on just a few DVD's and a few stations(the stations are like Showtime 1, Starz 1, but all the other Showtime and Starz stations are OK)? All other stations and DVD's sound great!?
I have tried both the coaxial and toslink digital inputs of the Krell with the same results.
Thanks for any suggestions -

I would see if you are getting the jitter problem at the same spot on DVDs...since its happening on 2 sources, and since you have tried replacing the cables, I would be looking at the preamp as the culprit. I bet there is something going on with the software running the Krell. There seems to be only 1 possible way to trouble shoot, and thats to take the Krell to your dealer and hook it up to their gear and try to recreate the problem. Good luck, and by the way...NICE GEAR!!!! I want your amp.
