I may have isolated the bloody pops/clicks - it was the wifi dongle - I removed it and got back to good old Ethernet cable and no pops - still a few pauses but very rarely...

To who, it may be useful...

Wifi requires more processing power (the encryption is done in software).
That combined with the issue someone brought up earlier that all of the interrupts on the pi2 go through the first core probably explains your results.

PrinterPrinter:
Guys,
I'm sorry to report that I still get these bloody Pops/clicks...

They are very loud and I'm worried for my speaker thought they seem to survive so far.

Switching to wired Ethernet from Wifi helped reduce them a lot but I'm still getting them... I'm running out of ideas...

JimH:
Try another sound device as a test.

Thank you,
You mean a different DAC?

I also notice often these pops would happen when the player changes to a new song with a different sample rate. I have the option of playing silence when switching formats in JRiver on but it doesn't help the pops. I would hear a pop and then the 'silence' bit.

Not sure if that's a clue or not...?

mwillems:
If you're hearing the pops when the sample rate changes it is probably a problem with your DAC.  Some DACs always make pops when changing sample rates, if that's when you hear them it's a hardware issue that JRiver cannot fix (it's a relay switching).
