Mytek Brooklyn - A dangerous pre!


So I ran into a weird issue with my Brooklyn DAC. 

I'm in heavily air conditioned environment with a carpet. If I accidentally spark the volume knob, the remote control setting goes nuts. If I attempt to change the volume via the remote the Mytek will automatically go to maximum possible volume! Good thing my tweets can take power. :) 

The only way to fix it after this is to unplug the power, wait 30 seconds, and reset the remote settings. 

Really not an ideal situation.

The idea with using fabric softener mixed with water is interesting.  I was IT in a small office at one time and we had a serious problem with static from the office carpet/rug.  We used Heavy Duty Staticide to treat the carpet and it seemed to help reduce static a lot.  It is more expensive (about $44 for gallon, $12 for quart), but it is definitely effective.
