Topic: Rustling / rattling noise from unit?

On the ADI-2 DAC, is it normal if there is a slight rustling / rattling noise from inside the unit when turning it upside down?

Re: Rustling / rattling noise from unit?

No, not really. Something moving in one place or does it move about inside?

Re: Rustling / rattling noise from unit?

It's not when the unit is stationary. There is a slight rustling noise as if something is shifting inside when I turn the unit upside down.

Nothing from my ADI-2 DAC FS nor my UCX II.

Hmm it doesn't sound like something's fully loose and rolling around inside, it's more like something is slightly shifting.
Is there any way to check whether something is wrong?

Re: Rustling / rattling noise from unit?

may be a patch wire if you have the ess version.

on old adi-2 pro and pro fs, this is expected, as the LEDs have moving isolation plastic that is movable.

Put your fingers on the 4 front buttons to fix them when moving the unit. If the sound continues someone should have a look inside. There are no moving parts.
