Anyone else with this situation and how do you resolve it.  The electric shocks to my ears are a little painful but the headphones sound fine.  I am using the digital out of my Squeezebox Touch into an Antelope Audio Zodiac+ DAC and using the headphone connection on the Zodiac+.  Don't know ezactly why this is happening.  Anybody help?  Thanks.

You are likely grounding your Zodiac. Or you're charged and grounding to the Zodiac.

I had that happen on a treadmill listening to an iPod. I was creating the static (rubber soles on a rubber track) discharging through the headphones. I stopped putting the iPod on the shelf and clipped it on.
