Hi, I am using this DAC with Dell XPS435 MT desktop. Once in a while, the music was buzzed (no music, just buzz) that lasts seconds.
I returned the unit and got a replacement and got the same problem. Is this an issue with DAC or with my Dell? Did anyone run into it?
Musical Fidelity is in UK and has phone supports (3 hours a day only) while I am in California :frowning2:.
 
Thanks.

That's a good point. I tried it with my 5 year old laptop and the problem did not happen. However, the sound is not as good even though DAC still lights up 96KHz. It's flat and not toe-tapping! Thus I don't know if my laptop is really sending 96KHz or if Dell desktop is bad (or it has interferences from other USB sources -- the buzz comes and goes unpredictably. I probably will unplug all other USB connections to see if this problem goes away). It's ashame if I can't use this DAC. It sounds so wonderful with Audeze LCD2-r2
