I am hearing some ticks and pops using the USB input.

Mike, thanks for the screenshot & advice on how to get the artwork there. Very clever, and will help with my hi-res files on iTunes. Bummer to hear about the USB, but with the other inputs, does it matter, or do you have a USB-only source?
Paul

I have a Musical Fidelity V-Link so I am using it with the C50 on Coax input. Sounds much better than the USB input, but I suspect its because the V-Link is 24bit. I can set AudioMidi to 24/88.2 which sounds better with 16/44.1 files. Can't do that with the C50 USB input. If the USB input didn't have ticks and pops, it is actually pretty good.

The tags are done automatically by iTunes using data from Gracenote. Only thing I did was add artwork.
