Hello,
Last night I "discovered" a hum in my Maverick D1 Tube DAC, when I was changing some interconnects, and my 1st thought was a bad cable, but it wasn't.
There is a hum from the TUBE output of my Dac, putting the volume knob of my amp to 11 or 12 o'clock. Using the Solid State output, it's dead silent.
I've swapped cables, inputs, outputs, the problem is the TUBE output, with any cable, with any input. The other output is silent under all the same situations.
I never realized of that, since I never turned the volume pot without music, so I can' t tell if this is something new, or it was always like this. The unit is like 1 year old, perhaps a bit more.
Is this normal? Should I open the unit to try to fix it? I can't send it to the seller, since I'm in Argentina.
