Bluesound NODE (N130) popping since update 3.16.1 with external DAC

Answered

Hi,

 

Last week I updated my 2021 NODE to version 3.16.1. Ever since the update I hear popping noises when playing audio through my with optical connected Topping E50 DAC. When putting the RCA cables back into the NODE, no popping or crackling appears. I can hear popping regardless of source: Spotify, Qobuz, HDMI ARC.

 

Is this a known issue or do you have any suggestions? I am certain that before the update the sound was fine.

 

Kind regards,

Alwin

    Hi Alwin

    The popping noise you may be hearing may be due to some slight tweaks we made to resolve internal DAC issues when changing bit or resolution rate. Please check your external DAC for auto-muting options. If problems persist, please select Help, Send Support Request in the BluOS App so we may take a closer look.
