[QUOTE="Skylark, post: 364034, member: 1555"] Anyone know if adding a mains Isolation transformer on the PC's power input or to the power input of the Amp that the DAC is connected to will cut this earthloop? I noticed yesterday the earthloop is quite significant - I moved the DAC's usb port and the usb plug touched the computers metal body which created a little spark as they touched - Dodgy!! [/QUOTE]
