I am in HK as well, and the latest firmware removes the volume cap. With wifi on the player should prompt you for an over-the-air update and once installed, you're all set. After the firmware upgrade, line level output is about 12dB louder than before - quite a difference.

Another member said he had no issue and that he was a member on an Asian audio forum where nobody was reporting a sound quality change. Not sure what to say, but it was mentioned that the lock range and filter go back to the default so perhaps for the people reporting a quality reduction that might explain it, plus, to be fair, people can imagine things as well so don't rule that out as a possibility. I'm not saying that is the case, but it is a plausible explanation as well.
Sorry to bother
I've found a good price on the Onyko from mainland UK for £510, however the eBay warehouse is based in Hong Kong. Does anyone know if volume cap is an issue with all HK devices / Does the latest firmware detail on the page the removal of the issues? My last purchase was in 2010 for a Cowon X7 - big step-up!
