USB line in DaC NAD D1050

Dear all, 

 

Maybe any of you guys knows how to solve this. I use my DaC with my PC with usb line in. The problem is that my dac makes a crackling sound changing from window pages or from youtube vid to an other youtube vid. I think its on something wrong with the USB ports? I i use the dac with SPDIFF i have none of this issues

 

If any, thanks

Try harder and try more, prevail

Sound's like jitter, you can small USB inline devices to fix jitter. Such as this one: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Audioquest-AA02-Jitterbug-Disorder-Suppressor/dp/B00YTA78FW/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=3JCPM1ET8UM76&keywords=jitterbug+audioquest&qid=1569086568&s=gateway&sprefix=jitter%2Caps%2C145&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&smid=ANNASRW22SIOH&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEzT0tGRVNJQUFYV0lZJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwMjgwNzM1M082SVFJMU1YSjdCWiZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwNjAxMjEzMk1BTVpOQkUxUDRUSiZ3aWRnZXROYW1lPXNwX2F0ZiZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU=

Main speaker setup is now;

 

Mini DSP SHD Studio -> 2x Mola Mola Tambaqui DAC's (fed by AES/EBU, one feeds the left sub and main, the other feeds the right side) -> 2x Neumann KH420 + 2x Neumann KH870

 

(Having a totally seperate DAC for each channel is game changing for sound quality)

@DerkoliI have a jitterbug already, Also my usb cable is a jitterbug to  AudioQuest carbon 75cm to IFI purifier to AudioQuest carbon 75cm to my dac.

Thanks for a response. Anyways now I have returned my dac to the vendor hence it is not working as in tended. Now am looking for a new dac. Am doubting between en Asus essence III second hand or a new Aune s6 pro.

 

I might try a ifi defender.

Totally forgot about the defender's, Yeah I would try one of them aswell. And the S6 is excellent, my friend has a DAC from Aune, very nice sounding.

Thank mate! I hear very nice things about the Aune S6 pro and the none "pro"

If you have anymore question's about high end stuff, Just pop me a message or mention me in a topic :) (i have decent experience with ultra-high end so yeah, I like to think I'm fairly knowledgeable.)
