I agree, given that some people don't get the issue makes me wary or putting all the blame on Devialet, especially given how variable PC OS builds are compared to the firmware + config in the amps. The recent firmware upgrade improved things, it's almost usable for me now, so with some bugs fixed fresh experiments are needed. As someone who fixes code I know just how hard it is to keep looking for problems in your own code once you have proved there is a problem at the other end of a chain, but the other system being wrong does not make yours perfect, though it can make it almost impossible to debug.

Does anyone with Rock have this problem now?
