High pitched buzz caused by Squeezebox Touch?


I've noticed that when I have my Squeezebox Touch plugged in and hooked up to my main system and running through my DAC, I hear a low level high frequency buzz coming from my tweeters. I've checked all cabling thoroughly. The only thing that eliminates the buzz is keeping the Squeezebox Touch out of the system. Here's the weird part: the buzz does not go away immediately upon detaching the unit. It takes about an hour to completely disappear. When i hook it back up, everything's fine for about 20 minutes and then the buzz is back.

Is this caused by that damned switching power supply in the SB? If so, which PS upgrade will do the best job of elimating it. I can't afford the Bolder mods, so that's not an option.

What amplifier are you using? I was getting a high pitched whine from my Touch when within several feet of an EL84 amplifier. No problem with a solid state amplifier. I switched power supply to CIA stand-alone unit with no effect on the RF issue. I don't recall a 20 minute delay.
