Clicking/Popping

alcarmichael — Wed, 11 Mar 2015 18:35:32 GMT

I've just bought an Apple Airport Express for the sole purpose of streaming Spotify. I've connected the Express to my Tag McLaren AV32R via optical cable. At this moment in time I only have the free version of Spotify but intend to upgrade to premium so I can stream the higher resolution music. Whilst playing music from the Spotify app on my iPad via AirPlay to the Express and onto my stereo I randomly get horrible clicking noises through my speakers, I would estimate around 1 click every two-three minutes. Any ideas as to why this happens? More importantly what's the solution?

That's weird... when I use AirPlay with the iPhone/iPad app, there are no clicking noises

I have diagnosed the problem to be a faulty optical output on the AirPort Express.

Well it's great to hear that it's not a problem on Spotify's end.

Hopefully you can get your AirPort replaced.
