DVD Player.....I am stumped.....


Hi,
I just bought a cheap Samsung DVD/SACD for the video conversion, and to try new audio formats, I initially hooked it up as digital coax.

Sorry this model is HD841

Anyway, I got this real weird digital chirp sound, so I took the unit back, it would play for a bit and kick on, and sometimes it gave the chirp right away.
So I traded it in, got a new one home and same thing, so I switched coax input on Rotel pro, same thing, so again I switched, this time to Digital Tosslinnk and same thing, Now I have had 5-10 DVD Players, hell way back I had 2 laser disk players...and Never had a problem, it is not my Pro..because my Sony was fine before...I check and triple checked all settings on both DVD and Rotel...and I cant for the life of me found anywhere where I am at fault..so anyway I am stumped, please help! thanks Chad

I picked up the Samsung to try out SACD without blowing alot of money. Also had some strange sounds (not chirps but close). I upgraded the cabling (Audioquest 5 cable set for SACD and the "best" Monster component video and digital cable since my son works at Best Buy - you wouldn't believe the discount on Monster products). The sounds went away. Spent alot of time with settings on the DVD and Outlaw prepro. Also, be careful with the jacks on the back - they are extremely flimsy.
