OK, tell me this.Another person having "volume surges" on their X9 on head-fi, I think this is an issue with the relay volume mechanism, they are from my experience more prone to issues, and I'm not just critiquing Luxin here, I've had three amps with relay controlled volume and they were all a bit 'finicky'.
What would you think are acceptable failure rates for a piece of audio gear, once it's out of the factory?
You are seeing an absolute number, but without the context of the total number of units sold, you shouldn't be drawing a conclusion, as you don't know what the scale of the "problem" is. I'd argue that if there was a real problem, then there'd be many many more reports.
Of course the company will be keeping all the relevant data in house, so there's no way of knowing
