Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update


In case there are any Denafrips DAC owners out there that are not aware of the FPGA Firmware Update, here's the link:

I did the update on my Ares II earlier today and am currently enjoying the results.  It is definitely an improvement without question.

I got a chance to roll my firmware back to the first version and after the flashing and restarting, my Pontus 2 is now really distorted in I2S mode, USB sounds fine. So I thought I would reinstall the version1 again and exact same thing. I can tell what song is playing.... barely. I can hear USB playback just fine, but I was using I2S 100% of the time because it sounds so much better, up until now. I am just shutting it down completely until I can get an answer what to do.

 

Maybe the HDMI pin designations changed when you updated?

YAY! I WAS USEFUL! 😀😀😀😂 (HAPPY 4 YOU!)

From what I recall reading here, or somewhere; all settings go back to default any time/every time flashing/reflashing is done.

Has anyone updated the firmware for the Venus or Venus II? If so, can you describe the sound? 
 

thanks.
