When they arrive just plug in decent headphones if you have some and listen to some good recording songs, please. I know measurements are important. However, how great a unit sounds vital "at least" for me. Thanks.
I don't have high end headphones.....I have dt 770, akg k702, senheiser hd-25 and o2 headamp....let's see.....or should I say hear

Check the voltage dip-switch is correct for your country.
Change power cord and try again

Bummer man...I hope you get it sorted out.
Always disappointing when stuff doesn't work. I'm sure you will be taken care of, but...still...
