IK Multimedia iRig HD X

Excited, that I was, to plug and play my brand new iRig HD X!
But quickly turned off after the shipped product appeared dysfunctional (it seems a corrupted internal circuit prevented the input signal to reach any connected Apple device).

Existing neutral Youtube reviews of IK's a/d/a interface convinced me to give this piece a second chance.

In particular, I am grateful to Thomann's dedicated and responsive team of professionals as they guided me through the re-order/return process swiftly. Cherry on this digital cake, all of them demonstrated sincere empathetic soft skills.

Impatient to get the replacement iRig HD X and, hopefully, to soon publish a cracking review on a fully functional exemplar!
So... to be followed!
