I have this weird problem with my DAC and I think it may be down to the stock PSU (wallwart) I'm using. Could it be something else?
Basically I have my DAC/amp combo (Topping D3) connected via USB to my Windows 7 PC. Occasionally, when the boiler turns on or a mains switch is switched on or off, there is a pop from my sound output (be it headphones or RCA out). Windows 7 makes the disconnected USB sound and then reconnects a few seconds later. I have to restart the browser or audio player to get the sound working again.
I don't get any noise or random disconnects, it happens only when a mains switch is switched on or off or when the boiler comes on.
It's an annoying problem. Any ideas as to what can be causing this?
