Lostdog54I was thinking initially on getting this unit but passed. Sorry, there are two questions not answered to me fully - driver issues with Windows 10 in particular and warranty questions. While driver issues might not be issues at all (for now at least) support and warranty is what bothers me a lot since it is not a hundred bucks item and I expect at least mediocre support when buying such an expensive device.

RomchuqueWell, I can answer both.
There is no factory warranty through the vendor but Massdrop stands behinds it for a year. MD doesn’t keep inventory so if there is a problem contact support, return the unit and you get a full refund. Yulong does have a direct phone number and email on their website under the support tab. As for the drivers, my gf told me she had no issues with the driver. She has a PC. I had a couple weeks with the DA9 and really liked it. It pairs really well with everything I tried. Fostex TH900, LCD2rev2, THX00 and the HD6XX, Noble6, Shure846, Noble K10, NuForce HEM8. Also hooked it up Balanced to the LCX and it was incredible.
The DA9 is built like a tank. Certainly up to the quality I would expect in a +$1000 unit. Take a look at the Yulong website. It made me feel better. I wasnt sure about the filters and modes but after using them I do like the option. The Sharp and PCM1 is the truest setting for those wondering. Classical and more quiet blues/singer songwriter stuff does benefit from playing with the filters. Never overly warm but never harsh either. Sweet and buttery. Extremely revealing. Silent background and isolation of instruments are both on point.Soundstage is incredible too. I enjoyed the time with Yulong DA9. Certainly not an expert but do enjoy good gear for a good price. I’ve been looking into this DAC/Amp for a while. Connectablity is great too. Im already in On this drop. Fingers crossed it has enough interest. Take the plunge. You won’t be sorry you did. And if you are, return it and get your money back.

mganapaThat is why I asked the question to show me where massdrop stands behind their sales with 1 year warranty. I was told by massdrop that if there is a warranty, it will be listed on the spec page for that product. They also told me if there is no warranty listed, massdrop will give product a 30 day warranty.
To me that is not enough for any electronics over $500. But hey that's just my opinion !

The silence on the last drop tells me everyone is liking what they hear. You usually only hear from folks having problems. Satisfied customers usually stay quiet. Busy enjoying their music.
