I found a 3.0A PSU, used a smaller fatter USB cable, and set -a :::0. I also put a power meter on the PSU, which drew a peak of 1.4A during boot up, and then ticked along at c1.2A. Amazingly removing the 2nd USB stick dropped the power consumption by 0.2A to 1.0A.
Unfortunately the popping is still there. It often seems to take a few minutes before it starts, or at least becomes audible. I have never heard it from the SB3s. Id still be interested as per my OP as to what the -a options actually do, as it did seem to fix the problem. Regarding EAC it is an excellent ripper. I never got any clicks or anything, which was initially a problem when I ripped my CD collection 20 odd years ago. It also has AccurateRip where it does some sort of CRC against a database of other peoples rips to make sure your rip is bang on. Yes it can add .cue files, although I never do that.
