Something very strange just happened. Listening to my IEM's hooked up to my PC via USB DAC -> fiio a3 -> IEM's. Went to pet my dog and she gave me a good static shock, ended up zapping both my hand and ears from IEM's and immediately made everything shut off. Had to restart the amp to make music play again.

Should I be concerned about something not being grounded in my PC?

Nah, you just charged yourself with static. Try and touch something metal that is grounded before touching your rig if you feel like this is happening.

You need to upgrade to an audiophile dog!

Weird thing is it didn't happen when I touched the amp or anything, just the IEM's being in my ears was enough

Maybe a groundhog?

That produces audiophile static charges! Brilliant
