New firmware 8.1.3

[PhilP]

I used the configurator just now and when I went to save the configuration the following message appeared at the bottom of the screen:

THIS CONFIGURATION REQUIRES FIRMWARE 8.1.3

My speakers only have a SAM 2 profile which I suppose may be the reason why?

[EDIT: I checked and the reason that the new config file is only compatible with 8.1.3 is not to do with SAM it is rather that there are additional parameters for ADH delay and DAC delay which earlier versions of the FW can't handle.]

BTW, overall I don't really like 8.1.3 or 8.1.3 beta with AIR (wifi or ethernet).  In my system there is too much emphasis on high frequencies which spoils female vocals on some of my favourite recordings.  Shame, as I like the extra weight that SAM brings but I may have to go back to an earlier version which will probably mean that I lose SAM.  I may well try an Aurender again once the school holidays are over.  Just wish they supported Qobuz.
