Yeah... let's just wait for the EU repair shop... things will fall into place eventually, I am sure.
Everyone will have their units replaced/repaired and not hear a difference
Am I reading Mandy's email right? Is SMSL still giving you the stiff-arm?Need I say more?!
Thanks for your proposal but I live in France and too costly and complicated to ship outside EUIs possible for you to ship it to CN/US?
Absolutely. People here are still hopeful to get the J-Link device. All I shared is that SMSL ain't doing that....still! And they say that unless there is a functional problem with the DAC, it doesn't need repairs... essentially denying any fault with device after admitting it a few posts earlier. Definitely the last SMSL for me!Am I reading Mandy's email right? Is SMSL still giving you the stiff-arm?
This is the same email response I got from Mandy. I have earlier mailed her regarding the issue and she once asked me to apply for a Jtool from shenzhenaudio. Now she shows blind eyes to my follow-up email. Was it the same person who posted here?
People here may be a minority. But if they storm the review sections of Amazon/other online retailers, and other forums things could be ugly to SMSL in the long run!"
Yes, of course as all inputs are fed to the DAC... and it's the firmware that controls the DAC settings that has an error.Does the 3HD problem apply to all inputs ie Coaxial and Optical as well.
We'll help to solve, friend, no worries. Just email to [email protected].Thanks for your proposal but I live in France and too costly and complicated to ship outside EU
HiFiGo, at least didn't argue with the issue being there...they just want me to ship both SU-9 units to China with 50% delivery cost.
FYI, under Australian Consumer Law, a retailer cannot refuse to handle a repair or replacement. Also, they cannot charge for the repair or replacement costs, including shipping. As this unit made false claims about the amp model, it does not "match descriptions made by the salesperson, on packaging and labels, and in promotions or advertising".

Canada may have similar consumer laws, so check before you make any decisions.
Also note that the SMSL warranty specified in the M500 manual says they will cover repair/replacement costs for up to one year, but this does NOT override Australian Consumer Law:
1. The term of service
Foshan Shuangmusanlin Technology Co., Ltd. promises good quality products. If the
product is defective by normal use within 7 days after purchasing, the customer can
chose to send it back for returning or repairing (only the product does not affect the
secondary sales can be returned ). Faulty for free within one year warranty normal use.
Also, how did you end up getting the update/J-Tool?For the few of you that got the SU-9 DAC firmware to udate..... What does it show now for HW, SW, USB?
This should be helpful for the rest of us going forward.
