It can be easily resolved by rebooting the Devialet, but sometimes I have to reboot 5 times a day!!! The people of the hotline were hopeless, even I am better than them, and I am really inefficient. I was told that they are working hard on this problem, but as it has been for months and months, I have serious doubts on their ability to solve it. At this price it is scary! Do you have the same problem?
I play music on my D800 fed from my MacPro 2009 (Mavericks) and connected by a dedicated ethernet line using AIR. On very rare occasions (once every month or less) I hear an intermittant noise that you mention. This occurs reproduceably when there is another process on my Mac using too much front side bus 'bandwidth'. To ameliorate the situation increasing buffer time in AIR or stopping as many processes on the system as possible helps immediately. There is no need to restart anything, imo.
