Gustard X30 disappointment


Got an X30 about a week and a half ago, this afternoon it dropped the right channel for the second time.
Now I'm not sure if I want a replacement or just a refund,

anybody else have an x30 that had a problem?

@yyzsantabarbara, 

Thanks for the above information.  What were the comments of the people hearing the SCHIIT BYGGY DAC at the LA CanJam event?  Any comments on its sound quality vs. the SCHIIT YGGY+ LIM DAC (I own this DAC)?  

Any additional information about the BGYYG would be appreciated.  Thanks.

 

@miles765 It's unfortunate that you got a bad unit.  It could been a factory defect or damaged in shipping, etc.  Even if the box is intact, they can get jarred around pretty good.  I had to return a defective conrad-johnson preamp.  On the return trip, the shipper must have dropped it.  All of the heavy capacitors had been knocked loose. 

I've read good things about the R30.  If you like the r2r sound, you might actually like it better than the X-30.  I'm gonna stick with my X-30. It sounds great, especially with my ddc and LHY ock-2 clock.
