    Yep audiophile tech isn't high tech and most of the parts inside are coming from china anyways no matter where the label comes from.

    I don't understand if they are not standing by their product they could have lied. Also you could have asked for a replacement. Which is a common worldwide practice, that's why you have a warranty. Single units can always fail there is nothing working 100%.

    Where should the improvement come from, they are connections for digital stream they don't add something and distortions are beyond audibility.

    The first question in this case, is the other downside of i2s, ist it compatible to the i2s standard of another company.

    Source? All I have seen is not a huge improvement over usb. Like this here for example https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/study-is-i%C2%B2s-interface-better-for-dacs-than-s-pdif-or-usb.7105/page-12#post-771453

    Unlock appears when you don't have a signal. So maybe the source signal was in stand by or something.
