. . . I had a problem with hum when I first got it, but the hum turned out to be completely unrelated to anything that the DAC (an exaSound e38) was doing. I solved the problem by changing out an amplifier and changing over to XLR interconnect cables on another amplifier. (There are four amps in all in my system.) Problem solved!
