Hello... have a problem here

i was listening to music when the buffalo started loosing lock intermittently for several times (talking about a couple seconds) then silence...
A rapid check shows that lock led is off, no matter of the source as i have the 4-Channel S/PDIF selector connected to a dvd player and an extreamer prodigy media player, tried also to connect a pc with a musiland usb to spdif interface but no changes.

Buffalo is feeded with 5.25v by a Salas LV shunt, output stage is 10k 1:1 TX for i/v conversion and unbalancing, followed by a tube buffer stage.
Everything has worked fine since i've built it, some months ago, whithout problems except for occasionally lock losting when someone ringed at the house door...
what can i check???

Buf II or Buf III ?

If Buf II you can try bypassing the S/PDIF switch. Input S/PDIF directly into the Buf II. Is the 5.25v stable ?

Yes it is correct. Are all of the VREG voltages correct?

Hello, sorry for the late answer... been away for holydays...

voltage outputs:

right trident: 1,2V , left trident 3,25V, AVCC 3,45V both outputs, so looks like everything on the power side is running good
