One of the channels on my fc3 no longer works - has anyone tried claiming warranty on their FC3?

Im from the UK and bought mine from AliExpress during BF couple of months ago
well if it's within the warranty period it is within warranty. For an item bought directly from HiBy you do need to return the item to HiBy in China to claim warranty, for which I'm sure the store will guide you through the process.

shipping the item back to China will cost more than the item itself
Perhaps you see the challenge for us in selling and shipping such high tech products for such low prices internationally then.

For such a well known audio company could you not work with AliExpress to provide free or subsidised returns for issues like mine?
I will forward your case to headquarters for their consideration.

What is it with aluminum-cased chinese DACs losing channels? The exact same thing happened to my SMSL Idea five years ago. Just bad engineering by these random companies, I suppose that's where the savings comes from. The HiBy FC3 is in fact a great DAC as long as it works, and mine is still working fine after the past few months of owning it.
