You are comparing this to analog? I see some albums in your photos. Because this sounds like a power problem to me. My streamers are extremely insensitive to the incoming bitstream.
Are you direct wired into your streamer?
Do you have direct lines to your system.
I think I said this before… nice system.
What happens if you take your power conditioner out of the loop.
Can you borrow a different high end power conditioner… Everest or something?
