A manufacturer’s fix claim is separate from an independently verified result. A dated observation does not establish a model-wide failure rate.
One record is currently documented.
Product issues
No matching public record has been added. This is not proof that no issue or update exists.
Complete history: 1 records. Product, brand and update views use the same canonical event identifiers. Event date and source-check date remain distinct.
Where it fits
A USB/S/PDIF DAC, headphone amplifier and variable/fixed line source for a desktop system.
Limits: A streamer, analogue input hub, HDMI device, phono stage or speaker amplifier.
Keep the conditions visible
Its useful differences are architecture, output modes and size; R2R or NOS does not by itself prove better sound.
