I was purchaser number nine of the LAiV Harmony. My input board has died. I’m not the first with this problem. It appears there has been a quality problem of some sort. Response from LAiV was within hours with a promise for a new board. I’ll follow up with my experience. Until it expired, I have been very impressed with the DAC. |
@audioman58 with the issues LAiV is having it cannot be a very good DAC. |
@tkrtrb125 That’s not a fair conclusion at all. This is a new product, and it’s not at all unheard of that any new product can have an unforeseen issue. The key is how the company handles it, and in this case LAiV seems to be very responsive in fixing the problem quickly if it arises. Almost all owners/reviewers have been very impressed with its performance especially for the price, which strongly indicates it is indeed “a very good DAC.” |
@soix I am not being harsh, QC is not optimized if they are getting faulty boards . As @jayctoy said they may sound good but not reliable. Being responsive is their cooperate responsibility and nothing less should be expected. I maybe throwing the baby out with the bath water but heck the L1011 was a great airplane and Lockheed was responsive after a few crashed due to quality and serviceability issues. This is my opinion and we will see how it comes out in the wash, regardless of the reviews, and I have had the opportunity to hear one, and based on reliability issues it is not a good DAC in my book. |
