NEED HELP with my DACiT

I haven't listened to my system in a couple of weeks due to a change in jobs and when I turned it on all I get is a thumping sound from the left speaker with no music at all. First it started off slow, but then it became progressively faster.

My source is a Sonos connected to a Peachtree DACiT with a Welborne Labs power supply. I use a Blue Jeans digital coax between the Sonos and DACiT, but tried an optical and that didn't solve anything. I then tried hooking up the Sonos to my Marantz AVR and the thumping sound is gone and music is being played through both speakers.

Puzzled by this and any help is greatly appreciated! Oh, and both the DACiT and welborne power supply are a year old. Thanks in advance.

    By process of elimination, that leaves the Dacit or the power supply. Try taking the power supply out of the equation and just plugging in the dacit. Do you have any of those 2 on a power conditioner ?

    I just tried plugging the DACiT directly into the wall and the power conditioner and the noise still persists. Looks like it's time to take it into the shop.....

    Call or write Peachtree, I did and they were excelllent to talk to, I had a decco 65 that 1 channel of the head phone jack would not work until it warmed up for 30 minutes, they had me send it in and they did a bunch of upgrades on it for me - they made a list of all the changes they did. they are in Canada but 1 of the people I talked to grow up like 20 minutes away from me and we talk for about a hour :)

    I did just that and their customer service is excellent. The guy I talked to said that he has never heard of that problem before, but there is always a first for everything. Sending it in tomorrow. Thanks guys for the help!
