Rephrased.
I’m already using WiFi and only been playing up to 96khz. It’s very random so I wonder if it’s either some interference or process kicking in that causes it. Odd I don’t hear it on the DFB though or lower sample rates.
Going to try a powered hub and a new cable and see if it helps. If not then its either sell the Nano and get another DAC or get something to replace the pi and be wireless. Funny how the DFB is more stable and powered by the pis bus.
Starting to notice this on my DFB as well and at CD quality. Not sure if its the latest Ropieee as did not have this problem until recently. I still think I need to ditch the pi and get something better though. Annoying it is.
