I actually like the audible verification as well as the visual from the LED. It does not click when the stream is paused though which it sounds like the Schiit may do but I'm not sure how big a deal that is either.
My Schiit Bifrost sounds great: it far exceeded my expectations esp. in transparency and palpable imaging. However it does click under two circumstance:

  1. When it switches back or froth between 24/192 and any lower resolution
  2. It will click continuously when I pause my CD player; not a big problem for me because I rarely use the CDP.

As blackraven has pointed out, this sound comes from a relay switch.
