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.
