Anyone here has any problem with ud120 windows driver?
My ud120 sometimes sound gets disabled while using it. Problem can get be solved when I tried to disable/enable it again in sound settings.

Is there any poping noised and or distortion prior or afterwards? I am actually going through this exact problem with my Audio gd NFB and it has gotten to the point where I was looking for a new DAC....
Sometime it may make one pop sound before it became mute(though windows shows its not mute).
But after i disable and enable through windows sound setting, it will be fine back. Replugging the DAC will also solve the issue.
Sometimes i wonder if its because of the wasapi I'm using.

The Stoner UD120 is really a special DAC. I've been comparing it back and forth to a Chord Mojo and the difference is pretty marginal. Treble is slightly more detailed and smoother on the Mojo, but I think the UD120 has a little better bass impact. Very small (but noticeable) differences. I'm having a VERY hard time justifying keeping the $500 mojo, but in this hobby, poor decisions are made for small improvements. For anyone looking for a bang for buck DAC, you couldn't possibly go wrong with the UD120, although I don't know if they're still being made. Just FYI, but my audition was made using a Yamaha RX-z9 (in pure direct mode) and also a Gemtune 300b tube amp, both with MB Quart Vera VS05 speakers. Hope this helps.

Anyhow keeping up with stoner acoustics the ud 125 seems like a great option though at that price fiio and some other brands have some tempting options
I even have a full review of it posted: http://kopfhoerer-lounge.blogspot.com/2017/06/Stoner-Acoustics-UD125-Review.html
It's in German but there's a Google Translate option.
In short, I can definitely recommend it.
I have even created a thread for it since the Head-Fi search did not show this one and no results at all when looking for "Stoner Acoustics".
Here's the dedicated thread: https://www.head-fi.org/f/threads/s...ac-thread-impressions-discussions-etc.852421/
