how to update the gustard x16
Ah this is where I suddenly become much less useful - I was running nothing beforeWhat are your sound impressions? Or maybe a prior question would be what we’re you running before and what changed when you hooked up
Your Arya’s to the x16? I am currently using a topping d50s, looking to upgrade..
Not to me…assuming we’re talking when connected with cable (I never tried the BT)Has it ever happened to you that with l x16 during listening there are annoying pauses in playback?
Contact your dealer, they should send you a programmer that you can use. Instructions and files are posted over at ASR.how to update the gustard x16

What is ASR?Contact your dealer, they should send you a programmer that you can use. Instructions and files are posted over at ASR.
Firmware upgrade complete. DSD issue resolved. It took some trial and error to figure out you need to unplug and plug back in the pins to get the MCU check to kick off (and the new firmware to update).
Audio Science ReviewWhat is ASR?
It fixes the DSD issue. If you don’t have a pre production unit that didn’t have the firmware updated before leaving the factory and you aren’t experiencing the DSD issue then there is no need to update.WOW is it complicated to update the gustard x16 !!! what advantages are there with the update?
Page 11 of the thread I linked to, there are test files. If you hear clicking and popping on the DSD file then you have the issue (If its totally silent on the DSD file, just like the .WAV file then you are fine)Can I find out if my x16 needs the update or not?
Then you have Youtubers Like Zeos reviewing super expensive dacs like Holo May and saying there's absolutely no difference..
This is such a confusing hobby sometimes.
