That could well be it. Like I said, the headphone out is unusable, though the line-out I've not had issue with.
It is a pity, indeed ...
Pls. sell it on eBay / Craigslist ASAP before this review spreads up ...

The French spelling is Malaisie. Trying to decide whether to think of it as malaise or the way you might pronounce it if not French.........my lazy. Either fits.I'd figure at least one phone call to Malaysia, since that's what it says on the back...

I wonder if it is a clone of some other device?

I don't know either. Good luck hearing a negative difference on music based on these specs. It just doesn't perform measurably better of which there's clearly better amps out there. The ony problematic item is the awful impedance on the headphone amp. The bas-x a-100 also has a 220 ohm resistor but it is designed to be bypassable though at the expense of significant noise.not sure why this is so upsetting? it's still better than the crown xls and onkyo power amps for speakers?
For sure the hypex nc400 is ideal but it can't be bought and shipped on amazon prime or local store for under 1k.
Sony does not spec the power level at 4 ohm. This is what I got:
Yes, the two channels are different. I ran that test a few times to be sure. If I use finer steps I could get a few more watts out of both channels on the graph.So what's with the wildly different channel performance with both channels driven at 4 ohms? One about 30W one about 50W. Something is not right there.
