RE: New beta firmware 7.1.3 released - hk6230 - 08-May-2015 A new discovery! Just played a 24/192 music via toslink to optical input, and Devialet works. No longer needs an adapter to convert optical to coax. Yippee! UPDATE: Strange encounters. I was using a cheap toslink cable when successfully playing 24/192 music to optical input. When I changed to a better cable, Audioquest Forest, the display was RED and no sound. Switch back to to normal toslink cable, music flows again. This, I couldn't understand why.

The way round this is to ask the wife; mine is pretty much immune to all of this stuff and is able to just describe what she hears. Her view is that the latest version of firmware is significantly "better". She's not able to articulate "better", but she is very clear that it just is. That's good enough for me.

Do you have a third cable to test? RE: New beta firmware 7.1.3 released - windler - 08-May-2015 At first I felt improvement in low frequency and high. I listened for a week and satisfaction declines as the hours passed. Indeed, judging from the level of specificity exists frequency range improvement from the previous version, yet All musical disappeared. Today I went back to the previous version and all the magic returned. Something tonality mainly in the mid does not work Version 7.1.3. Together with friends I hope that a formal version will comprehensively improving balance.

Just confirmed with another 'better' quality optical cable, same as AQ, no sound. And, I have checked the AQ cable for any damage or dust. It's clean and in good condition. Playing 16/44.1 and 24/96 music files, no issue at all. So, cable is in working condition.

Just played a 24/192 music via toslink to optical input, and Devialet works. No longer needs an adapter to convert optical to coax. Yippee! I am amazed that you could play 24/192 with toslink at all. The D-Premier was 24/192 on all inputs but the present line does not have that toslink input receiver (discontinued) and according to Devialet the present line is only 24/96. When I upgraded my D-Premier I requested that 24/192 works optically but when I got it back as a D250 it was restricted to 24/96. After many emails Devialet agreed to rectify that by installing an old input receiver and after 4 weeks with out my music I just got my D250 back and it works now also at 24/192 with toslink (and optical sounds better at any sampling rate). Does your cheap toslink sound worse at lower rate than the "fancy" ones? RE: New beta firmware 7.1.3 released - hk6230 - 09-May-2015 OK. I'm really not sure if it was the new firmware that enabling 24/192 playback on optical anymore. I have switched a few toslink cables and only one works. And I have confirmed signal in is 192kHz by pressing & holding the source button on the remote to show the input signal. Really puzzling but I'm not complaining. Now I can listen to 24/192 on my optical input with Bluesound Node. [/Grin] RE: New beta firmware 7.1.3 released - Jnan_devi - 09-May-2015 wanted to check with you folks on this one? : I inserted the SD card with 7.1.3 firmware with 17 files in it. Once the system fully upgraded, I removed the SD card to remove all the files to copy the Configuration file. I could see only 15 files in the SD. does this mean couple of them got copied into Devialet? Is this common |
