Hi,

For a while now there seems to be a lot of static coming from my DAC+. It seems to be leaking from the raspberry pi as there it is associated with processor activity on the pi. Even when I type into the SSH terminal for every letter I type there is a little bit of static. Have I got something set up wrong??

Thanks,
David

Most likely you're using a shielded twisted pair ethernet cable. This picks of noise on the ground connection of the Ethernet. You should replace the cable by an unshielded cable (UTP instead of STP).

Best regards
Daniel

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for the fast response. I was using WiFi so it was not that. However, I found out it was my power supply that was causing the issue.

Thanks again,
David
