DELA (Melco) released the new firmware V3.2.1 as scheduled. I really like their punctuality as I have been disappointed at the delay of Amarra and Audirvana Plus....

I'm a little worried to install it, not yet without knowing what's in it but mainly after the problem they had last year with 3.10, so someone else try it out for me will they?!

Yes I will wait a good month or so before I install it , doesn't sound like I will benefit from it anyway

@ Umetaro, can you share the link please. Its not on the Melco Audio website yet. Would like to read the release notes.
@ IanG-UK, to be fair to Melco, the N1 series have been around since 2014 (earlier still in Japan under the Dela brand). 2-3 years product life cycle is not uncommon for at IT product, even if not exactly inexpensive.
I purchased a Synology DS213 NAS with 2 x 3TB WD Red drives (fairly costly then) expecting that it would be good enough and would cater for any conceivable growth in my music library. Less than a year later, it was replaced / supplemented by the Melco.
For me, at least, given the resources available to Melco (or actually Buffalo, the parent company), it would not be a matter of whether but when they come up with new products/versions. So, that a Series 2 is now being introduced is not a surprise.

Seems like a significant update having read the google translation. Lots of new functionality has been added, particularly with DSD playback in mind. Just have to wait and see...

Still no Roon then?
The Melco is not powerful enough to run Roon Core but it has been suggested many times they are working on something.
It really doesn't look like it's coming does it.
