I have a pair of Yamaha DXS18XLF and DZR12's on each side of my desk, overkill for any indoor situation but fun, maybe not for my PC's glass side panel but for me it is. Loudest and simplest home theatre I can just move wherever. Company purchase used for holiday karaoke, DJing, and outdoor movie theatre at a lakefront seasonal resort. My living room is essentially the storage location for them.
@flywood was kind enough to direct my attention into D40 pro earlier.
Thanx for your reply. I did not think it's that way.I have a pair of Yamaha DXS18XLF and DZR12's on each side of my desk, overkill for any indoor situation but fun, maybe not for my PC's glass side panel but for me it is.

The DSP on them and maybe not the best specced THD amp kind of wastes the potential of the DO400 but the convenience factor wins here, I swap between headphones and speakers very frequently and am very fond of rotary volume knobs. Perhaps in the future I could pick up a decent pair of passive speakers and a nice stereo amp but truth be told I love the sound signature of the Yamaha loudspeakers so it's unlikely I will change.

Oh wow. That's interesting. Haven't noticed this yet, will report tomorrow after thorough use.
My unit is completely silent

| Volume | -0.0 dB |
| Sampling frequency | 176.4 kHz |
| Filter | Linear Fast |
| Brightness | Lowest |
No crackling to report here. It might have relay switching (when going from no sound to sound), but no USB crackling in my case.
Loxjie d40 pro is pretty much the same. Different aesthetics but functionality and specs remain almost exactly the same. Differences are negligeable. Regarding DO300 and su-u pro the headphone amp (in do400) is the biggest difference. Everything else also almost the same. As dacs/pre they're very similar too.
What is this "crac;kling stuff"? XU-316 / ESS9039Pro is top combo, If there is any problem, at all it would be simply fixed by firmware upgrade.
Yes it is, correct.
It's a small difference that doesn't justify releasing a completely new unit. Just upgrade the previous one. a mkii or pro version (etc.)
Not 4me, I do appreciate it, as I have written before (hail Hydra
which happened years ago, at quite different pricing ofc.Fair enough. Agree to disagree.Not 4me, I do appreciate it, as I have written before (hail Hydra
Niceone and it was not an irony. It was respect.Fair enough. Agree to disagree.
Good to know yours is working as designed. I have do a PO100 Pro, but that does not fix the fundamental problem — namely, that my DO400's USB output is broken.
I've recorded the crackling, and will post a clip shortly. While the DO400's firmware can be upgraded, I doubt that will fix mine because I suspect it's faulty.
