soundfan Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Love mine. And if the OP purchased from the same retailer I did (Vinshine Audio in Singapore) am nearly certain that the 3 year warranty is transferable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MooneeBeach Posted May 10, 2017 Author Share Posted May 10, 2017 The DAC was purchased from vinshine audio and has a 3 year warranty. Not sure if it is transferable, but I will assist if anything goes wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
