I have solved my crackle problem. We discovered that it was a cable length issue. Apparantly, if the cable carrying a digital signal (ie. SPDIF) is over 15 metres long, normal audio cable won’t be adequate. We changed our SPDIF carrying cables to co-axial cable (similar to video BNC cables) and our problems went away.
… not sure if this will help you though.
