Happy to report my replacement works great with my OnePlus One android phone without external power.
I'm having a strange problem with my Fulla 2.
Whenever I pull out the headphone cable from it (or plug it back in) while playing a YouTube video on my PC, it will cause both the audio and the video playback to stutter for a couple seconds before it resumes playing normally.
And when using iTunes, either inserting or removing the headphone cable causes the song to pause. And doing this a few times in a row made my iTunes crash.
As far as I can tell, it shouldn't be doing this. I could understand if I was removing the USB cable, but this is happening with the headphone cable.
Anyone else having this issue?
Removing a headphone cable causes audio playback to pause by default on iphone. Not sure about the crashing issue, as i dont use itunes for music. I use Spotify & Tidal with no issues.
I'm having the issue with my PC. I don't have a CCK yet so I haven't been able to try it with my iPhone.
I would really appreciate it if some of you guys could try unplugging your headphones from your Fulla 2 (and then plug them back in) while playing a video on your PC and see if any of you also notice any issues.
Thanks.

Since you are from Germany, Im too btw, take a quick look at this.

I bought the first one, my brother the other one.
Maybe these could serve as likely alternatives to the Fulla 2 / e10k / M3.
@Selbi
The first one is basically a Micca Origen, except the opamps are different. Even the driver disk looks exactly the same. ^^ The latter is basically the monoprice amp / gmax tech e01, which imho is in quite a different league compared to the e10k.
I do believe that the Fulla 2 sounds better than either of those two Speaka dac/amps. But hard to tell really without listening to the gear.
And you claim to live in mid-fi purgatory...
What does better even mean on an objective level? To me stuff sounds good when it has great bass and highs (supportive of V-shaped sound signatures, for metal and hard rock and stuff), but I doubt that's universal for everyone.

No issues on my Windows 10 PC when unplugging the headphones while watching YouTube, listening to music (MediaMonkey) or watching a video file (VLC)
This little bugger look like a baby m9xxWith same power and signal configuration with micro USB.
Anyone has a m9xx to compare? Its using same AK4490 chip but fulla2 only limits to 24/96.
