Topic: Noise when switched off??!!
I'm the proud owner of a new ADI-2 Dac and am really delighted with the SQ and feature set - I think it's fantastic!
However, I've noticed a small problem: When the dac is powered on, there is barely any background noise coming from my speakers, but as soon as I power the dac off, I get a quiet buzzing coming from the speakers. It's not loud, but it's audible at 8 feet and is a bit annoying since I tend to leave my power amps switched on.
If I unplug EVERYTHING from the dac - even the power - it makes no difference; the buzzing is still there. It only goes away when I switch the dac on.
Incidentally, this did not occur with the old Benchmark Dac1-hdr the ADI replaces. So I am guessing there's nothing grossly wrong with the rest of my equipment or setup. The power amps are connected by the same XLR's as previously.
Does anyone know what's happening here... and more importantly, how I can fix it?
Thanks folks
