Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update
@christianb5s4 Check out this site for opinions from some T-plus owners. My experience was similar. I had reservations at the beginning because of added brightness, also didn't like the fact that I had to switch to USB direct due to incompatibili... 
Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update
  @marco1 Was that also Iris DDC 12th? The version of DDC could make a difference, I think, since the new 12th has some improvements e.g. power supply, new FPGA chip, etc. I could not compare the two DDCs since the old one is not compatible with ... 
Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update
A quick update on the I2S connection issue for Iris DDC and T-plus running V3.7. Denefrips said they would no longer work on a firmware fix for the old (my bought in Oct 2021) DDC since it is replaced by the new 12th Ed. I bought a new Iris DDC 12... 
Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update
FYI. Denafrips is still working on a fix for I2S in old DDCs that are not compatible with the DAC running updated firmware. It seems more complicated than updating DAC. Here is what Vinshine tech support said this morning: "The latest DDC are alr...

  @anzaanimalclinic Thanks for sharing your experience. I had reservations about TP running V3.7 fw at the beginning due to added brightness to my system even after hundreds of hours of burn-in, although it did give more details, focus, and trans... 
Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update
Agreed. To make it worse, now my Iris DDC is no longer working properly with I2S output to the T-Plus DAC running updated fw V3.7. I was told by Vinshine that my DDC itself needed a firmware fix since it is "old" (bought new in Oct 2021!). Still w... 
Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update
Good point! Speaking for myself, I was not looking for any change in sound as I am happy with the sound of the DAC as is. What prompted me to try the update is the claim by Denafrips that they fixed issues such as "audio latency", "phase differenc... 
Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update
@liquidsound I suggest you try it yourself. It is not hard at all, especially if you have a Mac laptop. Once I downloaded the firmware update tools, it took me less than 3 minutes to update my T-Plus to V3.7 and the same to revert it back to V1.0.... 
Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update
I can attest to what Alvin said. My Terminator Plus was bought used from previous owner(s), and I was able to upgrade to V3.7 firmware using software tools provided by Vinshine team. I filled out the upgrade request form indicating it was purchase... 
Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update
From Vinshine this morning...   "I would like to apologize for the delay in the release of the FPGA Firmware Update. Instead of releasing it as planned, we have decided to postpone it until early June. The reason for this is that we are collab...

So, what is the verdict for the Terminator DAC with new FW update? Thx! ;)  
Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update
Terminator fpga firmware update available now with rollbacK option https://youtu.be/ShQUN5Sl4ak Anyone Tried yet? :o   
Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update
Thanks sat7. Great to know it works out well for your VII and I will definitely give it a try when the update is available for my T+ in mid May :)     
Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update
@dman1974 and @stevebohnii   FYI, I saw this review from a Venus II owner at pinkfishmedia.net. I have a T+ and can't wait to try the new firmware :)  https://pinkfishmedia.net/forum/threads/denafrips-pontus-ii-fpga-firmware-upgrade-2023.278879/... 
Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update
From what I read in HeadFi forum, apparently Denafrips are aware of the complaints and diligently working on releasing new firmware updates for Pontus II with both EP4CE22F and EP4CE6F chips. We shall see... Anyways, I  have never seen such an ac...
