ok, so you use an external DAC after the TacT. Have you tried removing the TacT altogether to check if the wall wart still influences sound quality? Also, it may or not be the TacT's fault, since the interface between the two (TacT and DAC) could also be affected by the SMPS. -- P Floding ------------------------------------------------------------------------ P Floding's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2932 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32231 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
