I've had it set up both wired and wireless with two different routers
and it does the same thing. Tech Support asked me to update to the
latest Slimserver and thus Firmware which I did last night. Its
unplugged now, so possibly this evening I'll get a chance to see if
that changes anything, not

Keeping out pesky AC is the main objective of Red Wine Audio's battery

You don't get DC on AC powerlines. If you did, if would quickly get
fixed when people notice the wisps of smoke curling up from
transformers in their gear.

I'm sure a strong DC current with high voltage would make you go hum
for at least short while. ;)

Indeed, if we could just keep that pesky AC from our power transformer's

Your 'subtlety' is not lost at all; it conveys a great deal...

Back from the dead on this thread, but I was wondering if anyone else
