Can anyone please share an “update.hex” file for CM (not CN version). I am having issues with DSD files freezing or not playing at all. I’d like to refresh the firmware in hope to fix the issue.

You can find some old fw here:

Thank you @bden59 !! Regrettably, the firmware on that drive is for CN version. Mine is CM.

I am experiencing the issue with all DSF files. Tried a few hard resets. Everything plays except for DSD/DSF files. The DAP freezes on any of them 64, 128 or 256. Please advise! Thanks

Did you do that (1) unplug earphones, and (2) replug earphones trick? If you’re using any adapter, unplug that too — everything needs to come off the SP2K.

Yes, that trick only works intermittently.

So, I flashed 1.26 risking to get a brick (LOL), luckily it didn't turn into one. That triggered an update to 1.46 (can share if anyone cares). I reflashed it twice and still the same. DSFs either play with a stutter, or don't play at all.

I tried some of the DSFs - same thing: plays with stutter (hiccups)

BTW are you playing them from internal memory?

Well, I am not experiencing any issues; every time I un/re-plug, the DSFs play so uhh... thanks but I am not going fudge around with a firmware update. Good luck with getting a permanent fix though, I suspect the SP2K is nearing EOL...
