Hello all
I have been very busy so have only just begun trying to assemble my DAC. It is an early model so I will have to make all the modifications. Never mind, this is DIY so its all part of the fun LOL
I have one question (I promise I have searched and in fact have read through the whole thread to get up to speed). I am trying to upgrade the Amenero firmware as per instructions on here:
ES9018 USB DAC - Hi-Resolution System*
But it is not clear to me where to obtain latest firmware (1.58?)
I am running ConfigOEM109.exe, 'Firmware Update' tab.
The only firmwares listed in the drop down list (next to 'Download firmware' button) are
firmware 1074
firmware 1080
bitclk_test

So where do I get firmware 1.58?

Cheers

Nice setup!
Noticed that you have cut the AES push pin... without the designated tool, it really is a pain to take out! I've decided not to put it back after it was out.
Consider using an EMI filter to suppress power noice?

I am thinking of some mods but will require the back panel rremoving. I presume I would need this "tool" to remove the AES push pin if I want to remove the back panel? Where can I get this tool? Thanks.

Insert a small flat screw driver here and keep pushing downward, then pull the pin out from the front.

Andrea, any progress on the updated standby firmware? Still keen on a 12V trigger to turn my amplifier on and off, but would require a delay so that the amp turns on after the DAC (1 sec?) but turns off before the DAC. There are a few pins and jumpers on my controller board but without the schematics, cannot tell whether I can use any of them easily.
