Core Infinity installed yesterday with Firmware 12.2.10 + DOS 2.2.0 RC3. Dropped off at Lifestyle Store in morning, met with Olivier, picked up that afternoon. Just finished setting up, created and downloaded new Config file. No problems here, all working as it should and sounding fantastic. No clicks or pops on USB input from Aurender and Phono inputs on companion working. I can't comment on other inputs, AIR or ethernet because I don't use them and all switched off in Configurator. Only issues I can see is source selection scrolls through USB then Phono (my set inputs) but I have to scroll through AIR, UPNP, Airplay and Spotify to get back to USB, probably not an issue, just requires a few extra button presses, but would be good to have setting so I just scroll through my used inputs. I also noticed when scrolling through the menu screen, 8 & 9 (after the configuration screen) are blank, could be a bug in the menu selection or maybe something to be populated at a later date, anyone else notice this? I haven't noticed any change or improvement in SQ, sounds the same as prior to CI upgrade to me. I haven't done any critical listening and only a couple of hours into this listening session, just enjoying some great tunes here.
