Awesome! My status was updated to "SHIPPED" hopefully it'll arrive by today or tomorrow;

I notice that there were other users that only paid the deposit, perhaps they were not notified that the units have arrived and awaiting for full payment before releasing to them.

I only found out about the status of this bulk through this thread; Perhaps if you could send them a PM to notify them to make full payment.

Hi fellas, a bit of announcement.

For those in Sabah/Sarawak, RM14 will be the shipping instead of RM10.

We apologize for announcing this late, we totally overlooked it at the first place.

here teh update with my home rig and my audio rigs. b4 this i use ud100 , ud120 and my dt880 pro, but ud120 can't make FHD with surround audios plays smoothly.
Now, because i have dedicate amp to drive my 250ohm, I use amp to fine tune the vol. Just so u know my ear is late 30's old.The usd125 max vol.

My songs all in flac. Music genre consists , symphonic metal, hard rock, rock, pop alternative. My jazz genre is only by kenny G and yanni.

simple to says is, now my target is beyer t90 and beyer t1 2nd gen.

when i use ud100 song was clear mid, bass not too thumping and my ear not tiring hours listening. if u slow it down, sound so distance yet u feel calm . Now more clearer and bass thumping . But, the reality is i need more of amp and t1 2nd gen cos my ears can't keep up.

Oh! is clean and pure sounding. And all my rig is using AVR to filter dirty current.

Hi Andre

Could you kindly send us an email or pm us so we may better help you out?

We could definitely offer you a one to one swap if it's a hardware problem. Your problem seems quite peculiar as it points to a software issue rather than a hardware issue.

EDIT: Software issue quite likely due to the fact these playback distortions seems like an issue with the buffers. Do you set them to a specific setting outside of the normal use?

Thanks.

Hey StonerAcoustics,

Thank you for shipping out the UD125, I've received my unit already! UD125 sounds spectacular, sounds better than the CEntrance DACport.

Hey Stoner,

I just got my unit, its awesome. I can tell its much better than my laptop internal sound card and its runs out of the box on my Arch Linux system. But should I expect different sound effects if I change the color of the LED, because I am sure as hell I don't feel anything different if there's any. I'm using V-MODA Crossfade M-100.

That's great news to hear. We were hoping to be competitive at the price range we're offering. Thank you.

In our opinion, the filters aren't suppose to sound vastly different from each other when the circuit is designed properly. Admittedly, we wanted the user to have access to some of the advance options we get to play with, so while some may not hear the difference, hopefully some others will find the fun in experimenting with it!

Thank you.

Well, I did switched around the filters and like you said, there are definitely subtle changes that I cant really tell with words but there are some difference in how they sound. For me, red and blue sounds more like what I used to hear from my Xonar albeit with less coloration and soundstage etc. No led feels a bit weird although I cant really tell what is the difference. Purple is more acceptable than no led. For me, red sounds the best with my Edifier S2000.

I kinda like it a little bit over my Xonar ST for the less coloration as well as the tighter bass. It is quite similar to my previous EMU0404 which was modded by Ijan, although I dislike the darkness brought forward by the 2132 opamp. This feel just right balance between bright and dark while still maintaining a healthy amount of bass.

If you're interested in some frequency plots, a german review of the UD125 has some measurements posted which showcases the differences between each filters.

http://kopfhoerer-lounge.blogspot.my/2017/...125-Review.html

This is just a one sided measurement however, depending on what you want to measure, there are a lot more plots to see but unfortunately we do not have that data at the moment.

hey guys, a little heads up.

We'll be transitioning to normal production soon around next week.

So the prices will be changed to retail price and we'll start offering units locally at a localized price.

A new thread will be opened here and the bulk thread will be officially closed once we sorted out the retail stuff. (International orders have opened)

Thanks for all of your support so far. notworthy.gif

Been testing mine over the weekend. I find that playing flac using vox or nightingale there is a clear distortion at the start of the song and at the end when you have no notes/singing. It sounds like breaking up of white noise. Like start stop in very quick succession is as if the streaming is not continuous. AAC AIFF MP3 has no issue. BUT......Audirvarna Plus plays it perfectly. So for MAC users out there take note of this initial findings.

How bad is the distortion? I use Vox with my Macbook to listen to Flacs too sad.gif. Just curious did you try using with Spotify as well?

It was disturbing but i noticed something weird. After using Aud+ I tried the VOX again and the problem seemed to go away. So this suggest that it was software related and Aud+ did something to the system. Now VOx plays without distortion. Another thing is that Aud+ is superior to Vox. There is a clear difference in sound quality between both. The vocals are clearer and everything has better separation and could even hear the small reverberations of the skin of the percussions . Used the Amber Rubarth album as a test. Well the Aud+ cost RM313 and there other is free. No free lunch.

Thank you. Please enjoy the product.



@all

Hey folks, I believe we have fulfilled most if not all of the orders. The rest who has paid deposit are already contacted early this week via email and private message. We will handle these leftovers privately.

We will be resuming normal operation soon and the unit will be sold at the previous retail price.

For support and issues, kindly email us at stoneracoustics@gmail.com as that will be our primary place for customer support.

Thanks again. This bulk wouldn't have been successful without your support.

Shout out to Stoner Acoustics for being responsive and professional!
My unit was connected to a (suspectable) faulty OTG cable, the unit was then no longer usable. I contacted them and they offer one to one exchange.

I just received the replacement unit today. I am using it now to listen with recabled Alessandro MS-1. It just sounds so flawless. Recently, I have listened to a very nice headphone, which is Master & Dynamic MH40 (USD$399). I would say UD125 + my headphone now, it sounds so great, at least same level to the M&D MH40 if not better.

Proud of this Malaysian product!

---------------------------

I am overwhelmed of how good it can drive Koss KSC-75. The handphone sounds so goosebumply good now!
