The bit-perfect mode is the one without any digital filters. Its purpose is to push all incoming data to a DAC chip without any changes along the road. Hope this helps, thanks!

Thanks it does!

is Upnp streaming supported ? My Euphony server can see the upnp end point but cannot stream.
the device has a pretty old firmware and I cannot find a way to upgrade it (the IFI website is asking me for a serial number which I cannot find…). I currently stream from my IFI steamer as upnp end point and the pro idsd is used as a usb DAC, but I am curious to see the sound quality if I stream to the pro idsd directly.…

Update - I was able to update the firmware from 2.00 to 2.08 after finding the bin file somewhere on the web. Unfortunately my unit does not have a serial number not on the unit itself not on the box. I bought the unit second hand and the previous owner probably misplaced the piece of paper where this information was captured. When I used the firmware update utility in WIndows under serial number I saw "000" - could that mean I have a demo unit of some kind?

I guess the ifi support page for Download Hub wasn't clear enough with it's hints

if you enter any 5 digit number after what the serial number should start with, the page will show the downloads

Hope it works for you too

Thanks!!! IFI could do a lot to improve their support as well as their documentation and frankly their entire ecosystem. They release incredible products but documentation is sometimes leaving a lot to be desired.

I do I know if mine is 30020 or 30120? The only thing I can see in my box is that this is V1 of the Pro IDSD. Maybe this means that mine is 30020?

It doesn't matter if it's 30020 or 30120, they both point to the same downloads

That's affirmative. Pro iDSD platforms run on the same unified XMOS chip regardless of hteir serial numbers. Thanks!

So upgraded to 2.15 but UPNP is still too erratic compared to the Zen stream that works like a clock, does DSD over UPNP and matched with a great linear power supply is a hell of a UPNP end point. The Pro IDSD Dac on the other hand is amazing!

Yup, ZEN Stream can do more than the streaming module in Pro iDSD, which was designed primarily as a DAC. I'm happy to read that you enjoy it used as such, thanks for your feedback

Does anybody know: What does the 2.15 do better? Many thx.

Just to clarify, in comparison to previous firmware versions? And by 'better' you mean sound quality, or something else? Thanks!

Also folks, just so you know, we have something cool regarding this year's Black Friday here:

I don't have any release notes, except "Bug Fixes" on official site.

So, i think they cleaned out some firmware related SRQ's and "new" remote functionality, when using signature with non-siganture devices stack. Firmware of both is the same. I guess there have been no big improvements.

But at all, only ifi could answer your question.

That's correct, our 2.15 firmware fixes some bugs and separates some utilities (MQA, GTO filter). Thanks!

Hi everyone, I have picked up a ifi Pro (non signature version) upgraded from the Neo.

Can someone advise for a power supply upgrade (manual suggested 9v - 18v) will a 15v ipower x or a 15v ipower elite works? (I suppose the ipower elite 24v won’t?)

I currently have a Keces p3 lps at 16v/3A not sure if that would work???

Cheers
