Ugh just got this white noise yesterday. Volume was set pretty high because the album I was listening to was pretty quiet. Pretty unnerving, almost gave me and my guests a heart attack.
I was using direct Ethernet connection. PC runs Windows 8.1 Pro, and I keep the computer running 24/7 with occasional restarts. Buffer set to 500ms, bit perfect enabled, using latest version of JRiver. Files were 16/44.1 FLAC.
I don't care about any supposed sound benefits of Ethernet or AIR if the god damn thing does garbage like this. I'll stick with USB. Utter garbage.
