Audiomeca Enkianthus DAC problem

Dear Audiogoners – about a month ago my DAC started to go show some strange symptoms: After correctly “locking” to my transport, it plays first CD without interruptions. When second (sometimes third) CD is inserted, there is no signal leaving DAC (while “lock” between DAC and transport remains on). This behavior also occurs while the transport is in the “shuffle” mode – in this case the signal from DAC disappears after 3-4 songs tracks being played.
What could be the reason for this behavior? Thank you in advance for your thoughts…

AvguyGeorge,
I tried switching input selector and unfortunately it does not make any difference. Any other suggestions?

I had the mephisto IIX. I had lots of problems with it. I sent it to France for repair. Came back with more problems.
I understand where you are coming from.
Good luck....BIBIBI

Dear Meta:

It is hard to know what is going on. It sounds like a break in signal from the transport is in someway messing up the dac. I have had the ekianthus for almost 4 years and upgraded the chip to the new model and have never had any problems whatsoever. Did you buy it new, if so you should contact your dealer. Alternatively you might consider contacting Aberdeen (look up audiomeca new here, they are the importers). Perhaps even better would be to write audiomeca. Anytime I have had questions they have been most helpful. hope this is of some help. If not drop me a note

Hi Gary,
I have same one and even reset the CS 8415 DIR chip, make no difference.
Can you provide the version of Cypress chip if need to be revised? Thanks!
