The OLED display is a removalble part. If you feel comfortable taking the unit apart and replacing it yourself, it is a medium difficulty.Same here. Waiting for a response.
I would be happy for them to ship a new screen for replacement by myself rather than shipping the DAC to China but I am not sure that is the outcome I will achieve.

Directions are similar to the firmware updates described in this thread. But I suspect getting the part may be a problem

Same here so I have contacted HiFi2GO who have asked for a video to illustrate the issue.They said “contact your retailer”.
Mine doesn't have exactly that. But mine has been screwed up for years, either within or right after my 1st year of ownership. Really destroyed any chance to sell it. And has soured me on Gustard. (I turned auto display off off to take the pics, but is normally now on, and display brightness is set to 0.)My X16 started exhibiting weirdness on its screen, whereby some “pixels” appear brighter than others, regardless of any brightness setting.
Anybody else saw that?

In real life the difference between lit and unlit is more pronounced; the phone photo processing evened the difference out a bit.. With my bad eyes some things are very tough to read.
Sorry to see the display breaking up like that. Mine, over 2 years now but each time being on rarely above an hour at a time, still looks ok.Mine doesn't have exactly that.

Good work, so you should.. get them so sort their hardware out, they aren't exactly cheap.I contacted them.
DSP affects reading on display of MQA when using Roon also. OFS is still MQA file according to manual for my A26Interesting, I get OFS when I turn off MQA decoding. So this means that the Gustard X16 can only do the second unfold right? I guess if it doesnt affect the sound quality its not bad right? The 44 seems a bit low for the master tracks but maybe it was just the ones I chose for this small test. Ill try coax as well.

There was a firmware update for that. Google Gustard X16 and DSF.Did any of you notice some problems during DSD playback thru coax or optic?
While playing dsf file, it goes as DoP64 to X16, music plays but there are some glitches and pops.
I get this behavior on both inputs.
192khz/24bit files run smoothly.
The firmware update did not fix the problem. But using Roon there is no problem. Foobar2000 still has pops between songs on some DSD albums.There was a firmware update for that. Google Gustard X16 and DSF.
Is it different firmware update then this one with cracks and noises at the end of tracks ? I did some upgrade and it resolved the issue but with USB input. Until yesterday I haven`t use Spdif inputs.There was a firmware update for that. Google Gustard X16 and DSF.
I have never had a problem with dsd and dsf,I have never had any cracks or noises. but I always listen via USB.I haven't updated the firmware until now. I have an x16 from 2020.Is it different firmware update then this one with cracks and noises at the end of tracks ? I did some upgrade and it resolved the issue but with USB input. Until yesterday I haven`t use Spdif inputs.
I had an SMSL device which converted USB to Toslink and it worked fine until one day it died. It was discontinued by SMSL and I got a different brand. The replacement I got was cheap Cubilex and playback was filled with cracks and pops. It wasn't the Gustard...Is it different firmware update then this one with cracks and noises at the end of tracks ? I did some upgrade and it resolved the issue but with USB input.
