You know what you need to do. Ground yourself before touching it.
Mytek Brooklyn - A dangerous pre!
So I ran into a weird issue with my Brooklyn DAC.
I'm in heavily air conditioned environment with a carpet. If I accidentally spark the volume knob, the remote control setting goes nuts. If I attempt to change the volume via the remote the Mytek will automatically go to maximum possible volume! Good thing my tweets can take power. :)
The only way to fix it after this is to unplug the power, wait 30 seconds, and reset the remote settings.
Really not an ideal situation.

An anti-static mat might work placed on the floor in front of your equipment. The mat itself is grounded at the wall and in theory dissipates any charge. I don't have personal experience with them but found them when I did some research for a computer room setup. https://www.uline.com/BL_1755/Anti-Static-Mats |
