AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! I just traded in my cheap chip DAC for my Pontus II again.I'm very happy with the previous one, I love this sound, I get perfect sinergy with my system, specially my HPs which are very detailed, resolutive and revealing
Yes, the old one released it's called 1.0 based on the 3.12 firmware
For me the Pontus 2 with old 1.0 (3.12) firmware is amazingly good sounding and engaging with the music, it doesn't feel sharped or shouty anymore. Music with energy feels with energy it doesn't feel forced anymore and of course there's always room for improvement, latest firmware showed that we haven't seen full potential of these DACs yet
Key of the matter is: We can have both worlds/sound whenever we want in just a few seconds by changing firmware back and forth. F amazing Denafrips, f amazing.
Restoring Version 1.0 is music to my ears!!!! Thanks for all the updates everyone!!!
P.S. IMHO=> Burn-in for these firmware changes is myth. There is none.
