Dethonray Dtr1 Prelude high resolution player

Jun 2, 2019 at 10:47 AM Post #361 of 2,403
My most serious case of "Seller's Regret" was selling my Tera-Player.

I can fully stand behind this statement.
One day perhaps, we can find our way to another Tera player.

For now, the Dethonray DTR1 Prelude and FiiO M11, will be good company till that day comes.

Even then, I can clearly say now, the Prelude is a keeper.

Oooo we can only participate in a tread if we are up to buy the Dap or the headphones? I was only giving my opinion about the Tera, that one I already had and sold it
You are welcome to stay and never take it personally. Many people ask questions just as you do on other threads. Enjoy the music :-)
The sun is shinning in London, really nice and warm weather.

Yes it's a keeper. Small size, bare-to-the-bone and intuitive UI, top sound. Why would one sell it? :-)
Yes, there always will be new gears, popular or obscure ones, to purchase or to test. Most of us here are not only chasing the dragon (that we never will catch), but we are curious. Curiosity brought me to the DTR1. I don't regret it.

Now I am busy listening to the Tera-Player and you guys were right,DTR1 music player sound above its price range and I like it but for me is frustrating now being able to update to the latest firmware.
I will try again tomorrow, otherwise I am selling it/ send it back.

Which format has your SD Card? FAT32 is mandatory. Then, put the zip.file in the root folder. Disconnect the player from your computer and switch it off. Now, by restarting it, hold power and down button for 6 or 7 seconds. It works 2 times for me already.

Thank you but I did all that already.

1. SD card in update mode must be fat32 format, NOT support exfat.
2. update.zip file must in the root directory never unzip it, dtr1 only try to find update.zip.
3. First hold down key, then reset, hold down key 6 second, you will see a yellow progress bar.
If failed, please check 1. and 2.

No luck, I wrote to Penon as I want to send it back.

Any chance that your update file is corrupt? Maybe try a fresh download.

Make sure the upgrade zip file did not get renamed. It must be called upgrade.zip only. Cats must only have that file on it.

I unzip the files to a small, fat32 mcirosd card. Make sure noting else is on the card, and make sure that the file name did not change-- winidows will add (xx) to the filename,to prevent conflicts with other files with the same name (e.g., if you have downloaded multiple ver3sions of firmware with the same file name.....

Hope that helps.
