I've downloaded "raw" files as well... don't know what they are... there is no extension at the end, i.e., no ".something"... is it as simple as adding .img to the end?   BTW, no worries, I actually had the update on a thumb drive.... just asking for anyone else who might try.

this is what I get when I click on the "international" FW link:   Not Found The requested URL /download/DX90_USB-DAC_driver_for32bitWinXP&Win7.zip was not found on this server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

the link on the first page leads to "file NOT FOUND".   The link in your signature works great for the 2.1.5's... but for the 2.1 it says "file has been truncated"... when I download I get something that doesn't appear to be usable.

Anyone Know how to find lurker's 2.1 "international"... the link doesn't seem to work anymore.

Crazy thing is I've owned the unit for about four months now. This was just a classic Brain Fart.

I know man... totally epic.   What can I say... it's been a tough few weeks. But I even surprised myself with this one. 

OMG!.... I've lost what little credibility I ever had! I feel like such an idiot. Yes folks... I plugged into the digital out. I must have been away much too long.   Thank you Lurker for the highly technical fix. Don't know what I'd do without you guys.

So... for some reason my dx90 appears to be toast. Went away for a couple weeks and hadn't used it. When I went to try it this morning I hear a steady, high pitch sound coming from the headphones. Nothing else. Just a steady sort of whine. I replaced the battery. Nothing. I installed the...

After spending the day with the modded firmware, I've got to say the improvements are not subtle. This is by far the best sounding firmware to date. It's got all the musicality of 2.0, but far more clarity, detail and depth. In short, it sounds great. Really great. Kudos to Lurker0.

  Feel the need to update this (maybe even erase it). After returning to 2.0 for a few days I had a nagging feeling i had to give 2.1 another chance. While updating, it occurred to me that previously moving to 2.1, I had deleted the update from my dx90, but I hadn't emptied the trash on my mac...

Pegasus posted a link just a few posts back.

  Ron… just curious… did you update to 2.1?

  No.

  Thanks Pagasus…. don't suppose you could put 2.0.5 up there as well. 

  Yep… to each his own. And I agree, 2.1 sounded best on mid gain.

One man's opinion: I really dislike this update. Let me start by saying I've only had the unit for a couple weeks. It shipped with 2.0... That's what I've been using and I love the sound. But I updated, thinking it was the thing to do. When I first listened to 2.1 I literally felt sick. Gone was...

  Ok... all jokes aside... restoring the original firmware on a mac (the new update in my humble opinion is terrible... far less musical than original, soul-less... again, in my opinion)... do I use the batch tool and follow the dx50 instructions?   Thanks.

Funny guy that headwhacker.

  Interesting… after the reset it did not delete the info on the drive… tried three times…. I finally found the data when I hooked it up to someone's PC in the office…. there was all those bs mac files (.fseventsd and spotlight-v100), plus >trashes…. in there I found a bunch of music that I...

sorry for hijacking this…. memory clear… thanks to the good 'ol PC.

  Ah… 5.65 gigs in ".trashes"… delete that?

Ok… can someone help me here… I've connected to a pc but no nothing about PC's… or what i should be deleting for that matter.  In the dx90 folder is the following:   .album_img .fseventsd .spotlight-v100 .trashes ._.trashes   What do I delete to clear the hard drive? All? Save anything...

Ok… so… can anyone tell me how to erase internal data when nothing shows up anywhere? Already did a factory reset, that didn't help (although it cautions "all data will be lost"). Again, my mac is telling me there's 6.11 gigs being used on disc. I can't find it, see it or erase it.

  ok, well i already made that error… how do i rectify it?

    not sure, but that was awhile ago… files are long deleted…. dx90 hard drive looks empty… But when I check info it says 6.14 gigs on drive. Man I'm getting confused.
