I have the exact same problem with my Anthem CD1 and my EAD TheaterMaster combo. I use a WireWorld Gold Starlight II digital coax cable. I have been researching the problem and from what I can come up with it has to do with a spike on the electrical that's being caused by the light switches for fluorscent lights, ceiling fans, washer machine, etc. The spike gets past all forms of audio power conditioners. They actually make a product for the computer industry you can look up. I have found ways to lessen the problem in my system. First I upgraded the power wiring running to the transformer in my cd player/transport from 18ga. to 16ga. 6 nines solid core. Next I replaced the digital output wiring from 22ga. solid core copper to Kimber 19ga. silver and a WBT RCA. Both of these upgrades helped lessen the problem. Next I took the power cords of both units and plugged them into the same outlet and that also lessen the problem. Sorry I couldn't be more help but there really is only one solution for your situation since I have been a Parasound CDP1000 owner of the past. Upgrade the digital output and use the glass connection which will solve the problem and its the only way to solve the problem outside of a total isolation system. Good luck
DAC-Help
Hi i have a Parasound DAC hooked up to a Denon CDP.I am using the Coaxial output.However i am using a Normal interconnect cable to hook it up,not the 75 ohm coaxial cable.I have noticed that the sound sometimes cuts off for a split second then comes on again.Could it be the cable??Is it absolutely neccessary that i use the right cable??Also i noticed that when i turn On and Off other electrical appliances in my hall the same thing happens.Could it be that my DAC is faulty. Any comments much appreciated.Thanks.
