Meitner/EMM Labs Firmware Upgrade = Sonic Bliss
FYI!The firmware updates are specific to products they are for. You must not use MA-1 firmware to update a DAC2X for example. The MDAT2 DSP update is for all current products that have a DAC.Also it is my understanding that the updates should be p...

FYI! Below is a copy of an announcement from EMM/Meitner on their Facebook page for the 2014 Hong Kong High-End Audio Visual Show being held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre from the 8-10th of August 2014."Meitner Audio and EMM La... 
Meitner/EMM Labs Firmware Upgrade = Sonic Bliss
There is NO cost for the Firmware Upgrade. Try your dealer first, then EMM Labs/Meitner websites, or email them. But make sure you email the right person and dept. It is ready and should be posted any day now. There are a lucky few of us that got ... 
Meitner/EMM Labs Firmware Upgrade = Sonic Bliss
Doggie, I am not sure. The best thing to do is email them and ask. I know they are working on another update for later this year. 
Meitner/EMM Labs Firmware Upgrade = Sonic Bliss
Syntax, the same can be said for analog or just about anything. There is not much in the world that does not progress and get better. But you read too much into my impressions. The MA-1 prior to the Firmware Upgrade was by no means wanting at all....

Your more then welcome Matt. Knowing what a great guy Merrill is I am sure he will be willing to loan his MA-1 to you again. But if the timing is off for you just let me know.

OK. But keep in mind that I have just purchased a MA-1 and if need be would be happy to loan it to you once the new firmware update has been released.

Matt, according to Meitner they have a major firmware update that will make a significant improvement in the sound of the MA-1. It is supposed to be released this month. Check with Merrill if his MA-1 has that update otherwise you might want to wa... 
Merrill VERITAS monoblock amplifiers

Now you've done it Matt. Every red blooded Audiophile on the planet will now HAVE to own a Flockazinga (I hope I spelled that right). I don't know about the rest of you but I already paid for mine, before the line gets to long. I went for the swee...

Sorry Matt. I just saw your request. DONE. 
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD
Gary, thanks for your reply and understanding. But again prior to my postings I was never informed that the DSD DAC I had was a prototype. If I had been informed of that I would have not even bothered to try it, either at the Club meeting or anywh...

Winson, I have an update on the Meitner vs Phasure."Strange that HiFiAL says that the Meitner beat the Lampi DSD-Dac, when Bruce Brown said it beat his reference MPD5 (Playback Designs). I also concur after listing to both extensively"Since my pos...
