Who cares? The consumption is silly low anyway. I use 25000kWh per year a Dac will not be notised, if you want to compensate forenergy comsumption ,shower 0.2 second shorter every morningI hope I'm wrong, but that doesn't sound like it meets the EU standby power consumption requirements:

My main concern was that it would mean there wouldn't be any EU based resellers because they wouldn't be allowed to import or sell a nonconforming product. Since then Audiophonics, Purité Audio and maybe more have started stocking it, so my concern appears to have been misplaced.Who cares? The consumption is silly low anyway.

YesEDIT: subsequent to this review, the IMD "hump" was resolved by the designer. He was also gracious to provide the fix for anyone to use!
Does this means that this DAC Does not suffer from ESS hump anymore?

Do any of you fine people recommend changing the digital filter? The default one sounds great, and I'm not sure if it's worth changing.
Hi, Jason, just directly ask the person again I told you. He should solve the issue. ThanksHas anyone had an issue with channel imbalance? I clearly have a a few dB difference between Left & Right channels and do not see that you can change channel volume independently so I'm thinking there's an issue with this unit. My other dac, image is spot on.
The new version 4.86 of “SONCOZ_Thesycon_UsbAudio_Driver_V4.86” is available,if you need,please Download and upgrade.
NEW:
1、Support for Windows 10 version 2004
2、Various improvements and bugfixes
Hello @Ben1987 will this update fix my issue? Is this a known issue? Also, how does one update this? I don't see any instructions in the manual to do so.Has anyone had an issue with channel imbalance?

We haven't received feedback from others about channel imbalance.You can try to update this driver, just need to install the 4.86 version of the driver after uninstalling the one installed before. For the upgrade, please refer to the SGD1 upgrade instructions, which can be downloaded from the official website .Hello @Ben1987 will this update fix my issue? Is this a known issue?

Thanks. That didn't do anything...still have a very obvious imbalance with this dac compared to my other.We haven't received feedback from others about channel imbalance.You can try to update this driver, just need to install the 4.86 version of the driver after uninstalling the one installed before.

@Ben1987 @Sophia Ann I did some more troubleshooting...Thanks. That didn't do anything...still have a very obvious imbalance with this dac compared to my other.
EDIT: I have swapped amp too and it's still there and traced to the DAC.
