But there shouldn't be any similar problem on USB.  That sounds more likely to be a software issue, general network playback issue (i.e. can't get data fast enough from NAS or whatever), or possibly a hardware fault.  I did have this fault with my 200 (along with other things) and it was replaced, although I believe the streaming board only needs to be replaced if it is the problem.

Whats the rest of your setup, what software etc are you using?  With a bit more info others might be able to help.

Thanks for all the replies.

Yep did see references to noise with AIR but didn't see any mention of issues with USB. Fingers crossed it's not a hardware problem.

USB connectivity path is:
Devialet 120 -> Schiit Wyrd -> Macbook Pro

Music files data path is all Gigabit Ethernet:
ZFS NAS server (AFP) hosting iTunes library -> Macbook Pro running iTunes

Probably things to test are Devialet 120 straight to the Macbook and music played via local storage.

So far Devialet are being fairly helpful via support to help figure things out. Will update this post once I know more.
