were you prompted to destroy yours before shipping?I just received tracking information from Hifi Collage. It's on the way
were you prompted to destroy yours before shipping?
When you received their message and then when you replied your 1st and 2nd messages? Yesterday (26th Jan) I received their message at 02:00 universal time and i replied at 09:21. Still nothing.No I was not. I was only asked for my address as I forgot to include it in my first message. They then responded that they got it and sent me the tracking number a few hours later. If I am not required to e-waste the old unit, I may keep it as a spares unit (volume pot, switches, ports, etc as they are high quality and I could use these thing eventually on other projects)
if e-waste is required, I'll recycle it.
So is the 2012 'completely fixed' version or are we talking about even newer batch?Please do so.
90% of 2012 and 100% of newer batch are completely fixed.So is the 2012 'completely fixed' version or are we talking about even newer batch?
Thanks! Is there any way to confirm that replaced unit is not the one of faulty 10%?90% of 2012 and 100% of newer batch are completely fixed.
It has to be made clear that those 10% are not faulty.Thanks! Is there any way to confirm that replaced unit is not the one of faulty 10%?
My L30 replacement unit will arrive today from @SHENZHENAUDIO . I really hope I'm not the one of 10% unlucky ones.
I think John simply means there is a further addition in the last 90% as opposed to the 10%.
No headphones are going to die anymore, in any case.
Ok, but for anyone that live in low humidity regions, there's a way to know if they are one of the 10% that have a L30 without better ESD protection?
The test would be to check if there is very little resistance between the RCA shield and metal enclosure screw on the back of the amp.
When that is connected you are 'safe' from ESD.
So easy to test but requires a multimeter.
Another thing I really didn't want to mention was the first case of burnt headphones that happened much much earlier. The user was cooperative in the beginning but went non cooperative afterwards. This is not to transfer the responsibility but an explanation why we weren't able to investigate that case.

I assume the rca ground is the outer ring on the RCA plug? I checked that to the rear screw on my 2009 and yes, open connection..Yes, but you will be needing a multimeter with resistance setting. Then check for continuity between the rear screw and the RCA ground.
Those not knowing what to measure can take it to someone that does and give them the above clues.
It takes 10 seconds to check this.
You can safely use any 2012 regardless. They are all 'fixed' in the sense that they won't blow up any headphones.
