Impressive design and I am sure it sounds great!
Two things though:
Made in China and what is the firmware support like? I ask this because this type of DAC is ALIVE because of the programming/firmware.
I have never heard of it before. Is it well known? I don't mean in any way that it isn't a great design, I just don't know how many are out there and hence what the level of interest in mods may be.
Thanks,

I don't know, but here's a post from the distributor:
Hi guys,
I posted in another forum, but I thought I should share it here as well.
We have had someone in mind for months now but wanted to make sure that person was up to our standard of service. After a couple of repairs were done very well, we are happy to announce the US service center in Atlanta GA, Mike Powell Audio, a 15 year veteran in the Hifi industry with the background in modification and repair as well as design and manufacturing.
Henceforth, for US customers, you do not need to ship the faulty unit back to us. Mike offers 'white glove' courier service. All you need to do is to pack the unit back in its original packaging, tape it, and wait for the courier to pick up from your doorstep.
The turn around time is approx 1-2 weeks. Once fixed, the unit will be returned to you, door to door delivery.
Many thanks.
Sincerely,
Alvin @ Vinshine Audio
