Just to set the statistics straight: I run my music from iTunes via AIR 2.1.2 on an OS10.8.5 MacPro and a directly connected standard ethernet cable to the D800 and never ever had a problem with noise or dropouts.
That problem only occurred when I tried to play HiRez files via wifi. But given that wifi connections is hopelessly compromised by a lot of other appliances and 9 neighbours using wifi, it was not a good idea to try it anyway. There was one single instance where I had noise with my setup: That was, when my Mac unexpectedly engaged in an intensive operation of copying and/or other operations. After quitting the responsible applications everything was fine again.
Maybe some of you should consider reverting to AIR 2.1.2 instead of the last version?
