Clicking Popping on some tracts thru AKM 32bit/DSD64 Amanero Chipset DAC


Ok, on certain tracks I get a horrible clicking and popping on my dac.  On others, including hirez files; nothing but beautiful music.  I have swapped out tubes, tried pairing with different preamps, but I cant figure this out.  Any ideas?  Thanks!

I have had that issue with certain streaming software..do tell what is your streamer and software?  or are they local files??

Beg steal or borrow another DAC to try.  As the tracks are local how where they created? What format are they? Does it happen if you play on a different system? Is it the tracks themselves? Bad USB cable? It could be bad tracks or the DAC playing up. Is it always the same tracks that click and pop?
