Testing tonight, has revealed there is ZERO issue with the board.

The old Napster files seem to have degraded, resulting in the audio pops and clicks.
I can 100% reproduce this, if I play back the same file on Linux or even Windoze.
The pops and clicks are at EXACTLY the same point.

I now need to eat a little humble pie, for accusing the board as the possible source of the problem.    

Sorry, Peter.....    

I only used the old Napster files, as I thought it would be nice to hear some of those old songs again.

I tried some new MP3's tonight, including Dire Straits - Follow Me Home(from the Communique album), to test the LF response, and was blown away with how good it is via the I2S DAC chip.  ALMOST literally blown away, as the volume was up there.....

Superb.
