Exactly what happened to mine. Almost seems like a software issue that bricks the RS130. Not that it is any less frustrating as Iâm waiting for a replacement unit for the same thing.
@moderators You must promptly and publicly address this and other hardware concerns to acknowledge ongoing quality issues and provide assurance that existing RS130 owners will receive appropriate support in the event of similar hardware failures. A continued pattern of ignoring, deflecting, or denying these issues may raise serious legal and consumer protection concerns.
If youâre wondering about the incidentâs status, the device is still awaiting spare parts or authorization for replacement from ROSE. Quite impressive, isnât it?
Note to selfâŚDO NOT USE THE APP TO RESTART MY RS130âŚI never have used it and always just hold down the 4th button up top.
Iâm the same. After I tried to turn the screen off and on in the app and bricked mine, it is only by the button on top now for me.
Same thing just happened to my RS130. Very sad to hear this seems to be a common repeated problem and that rose support are not doing anything about it. What am I supposed to do while I wait months for a replacement unit thart might well fail in the same way again. really disappointing for what is a VERY expensive unit that is only 4 months old.
I would like to stop using HiFi Rose equipment and swap to something else now as I have lost confidence, but I guess getting a refund now is out of the question and I am now stuck with this dodgy piece of crap (well, will be stuck with it when I get it back from repair).
Seems to happen to a LOT of units
Itâs definitely concerning. Iâve reached out to HiFi Rose both publicly and privately asking for more information, but unfortunately havenât received even an acknowledgment. That lack of communication only adds to the uncertainty.
As has often been the case in the past, HiFi Rose hasnât directly addressed this growing problem, which leaves all of us guessing about whatâs really happeningâand wondering if, or more likely when, weâll be affected by these hardware issues.
I experienced a screen failure myself, and while the U.S. distributor did step in and resolve it, I canât help but feel uneasy. Iâm not confident the same issueâor another unexpected hardware problemâwonât happen again in the future.
@ROSEHAN any comments? If you elect to not reply you will illustrate the lack of transparency to your current and potential customers.
Dear HiFi Rose users
We apologize for the late response.
We are currently investigating this issue.
We have not yet been able to reproduce the issue on our end, and we will work to resolve it as soon as possible.
We apologize for any inconvenience.
canât believe it!
Easy to find out in using als Roon Endpoint and set in Roon standby to 5 sec.
Let then start playing something through Roon to the device again.
Perhaps not after the first try, but after some tries, the device starts playing, but display remains black and you canât âwake fullyâ the device with the app, the remote or the knop.
