I updated xds1 firmware today to 104-023. The sonic imrovement is quite obvious. However, I was quite upset that the player could not lock into hi-Rez tracks at all. I reinstalled new firmware but still got no luck. Had to revert to old firmware to play hi-Rez tracks. Does any one have a better luck?

Wow, that's not good. I hope emmlabs will quickly release new firmware to fix that bug. Hard to believe, really.

Teenill,

Have you called EMM to ask? They are probably the best place to start. Unfortunately, I don't currently use the digital inputs with anything higher than 48/24 so I can't help.

I emailed Emm technical support last Saturday. If I don't get the answer by Tuesday may be I'll call them. By the way, have you updated the firmware? May be I'll up the firmware again and play only standard res tracks for awhile as it kind of more natural with better refine details compare to the old firmware.
