Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update
And remember to reset the I2S port after updating.  
Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update
I’ve applied the 1.4 firmware to my Pontus II 12th this morning, and I was thoroughly surprised by the giant step this update made. Gone is the hint of dryness to not most, but all music I listened to today. From the USB feed thru the Iris, to the... 
Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update
  It's not like getting a tattoo. Can be flashed back. If you bought any of their DENAFRIPS dacs new, from Vinshine, you would have received an email of the firmware offer. Even if you bought it used, they will provide you with the update instruc... 
Gordon Lightfoot, Canadian folk legend, dead at 84
Thank you, Gordon Lightfoot. Thank You again, and again.  
Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update
From what I recall reading here, or somewhere; all settings go back to default any time/every time flashing/reflashing is done.

Thanks to Todd, and glad I have a Mac. 8?)

I don't own—nor have I listened to the Venus's 'Voice' but, I'd like to know what owners think.

I'll be keeping my Pontus II at the latest FIRMWARE update. I hear more detail in music I am familiar with, and my music is mostly Jazz trio/quartet—which sounds lucious, wide, detailed and open. Quite happy!  
Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update
its late and I'm rambling: I'm not sure many of us have enough experience with re-flashing, re-burning-in DACs (or is it redacting an updated DAC). But, from what I've read; some owners of the Denafrips DACs were given 'early access' to the updat...

The (EP4CE6F) chip is what is in my Pontus II I purchased from Vinshine in late February, 2023. There is more detail to my music, however it has lost a 'smidge' of it's warmth/sweetness. I'll continue to listen for another week or 2-3 weeks for a...

I should add to the above; I was streaming from my iPad, usb to Pontus, to P3 pre, to EX-M7, to Revel M106 pair. I have yet to try the other ports and I believe Alvin noted those ports would receive the benefit of the firmware, too.  
Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update
Installed the Pontus II 12th Anniversary FUT. I downloaded to my Mac Pro (Mojave), the directions were clear and went quite smoothly. Less than 1 minute once I dropped the file into the Terminal window. I didn't expect to be blown over by the resu... 
Denafrips Pontus II Clicks Or Static?
I'm waiting for the file to apply the firmware to my Pontus II. I have owned this DACs for over 3 weeks and have not experienced any pops or clicks while streaming music. I'm in-between owning a CD transport. However, like my Ares II (SOLD), I've...
