Assuming you are using the I2S output is there any specific reason why you haven't connected the ground wire? I use the Amanero board I2S out to my Discreet Monica dac with the ground wire connected. No drop outs ever. Excellent sound. I've read a post on diyaudio.com recommending that you even connect one ground wire for each signal wire arranging them side by side to prevent rfi. That's why the board has a ground connection for every signal connection. Btw. the Amanero board is the best upgrade I've done considering the hilarious price of � 79 or � 39 if you go for the group buy! If your dac has an I2S input it's a no brainer. Provided you have a soldering iron. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ speedycat's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=59129 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94512
