Why does my MSB DAC III click?


I just hooked my new MSB DAC III to my Cambridge D-500 SE
CD player, and everytime the CD player switches tracks,
the DAC clicks! I switched to my Sony DVD player and it
does the same thing. It seems to be searching for the signal. I contacted MSB, but was wondering if anyone has
run into the same thing.
Thanks,
Dave

Do you have the manual?I believe your problem relates to a user adjustable jumper.If you need specifics,go to the MSB website and download the manual.
I looked at my manual.If you look at the main board inside your Link,I believe you will find that the jumper has been removed from position 1 on IC J14.This controls the switching of the DAC to analogue bypass.When the jumper is in place the DAC is active as long as a device is connected and turned on.With the jumper off,an active digital signal must be present to "keep" the DAC on.
