Would they be stocking W2 soon as well?

Yes!!!

So if will become available in more places, it will be very popular and they will keep improving it via the firmware updates.

We need an European L&P dealer. Maybe @HiFyAK2020 can talk to Audiophonics for example.

How do we know the firmware for W1? I pushed the little button when I plugged it to m'y phone and it didn't show the version....

You need to read post #304 for the firmware update.

I guess it is up to EU dealers to decide whether to become an authorized dealer of LP. Maybe some of them will if W1/W2 sells well.

I did it but I have just the Brand 1 seconde and after the menu

There is little to no side to side movement on mine. Everything is nice and snug. One thing you could do is double sided tape or velcro if you really feel the need

Thanks - i was just a bit concerned that the cable that is connected to the other end might create side forces that could over time damage the USB-C connections. Imagine one time you accidently pull on the IEM cable and it breaks the USB-C male connector. Velcro can be a solution to be sure that this does not happen. I'll consider.

Good point - I will contact them in due time - we really need an European L&P dealer - i agree...

Thanks!
I also have another updated information from Musicteck and LP. The W2 will launch first in the US - expected to ship later this month. The W1 will arrive early next year.

? W1 is sold since quite a while - you must have made a typo here. I own a W1 that i bough in January and i am by far not the first customer... don't worry - if you need one you can buy it.

you hold the little button firm with one hand and plug the W1 into the USB cable where the power comes from (Smartphone for example). It shows the Firmware version.
Latest one is W1_V1.0.1.3_AS and this shows on the display. at least for a brief moment...
You need to HOLD the button down while you plug it in -otherwise you only get the menu.
and yes, it shows for 1-2 seconds only. but you can repeat it as many times as you want - exercise for the reaction time....

The was the info a while ago. I did not update the OP.

Edit: Updated just now.

Can you ask them about silicone or high quality leather case? We don't want it scratched, do we?

 

[FooFighter]

Just an idea for very far in future firmware feature (if circuit allows it):
Switching option for spdif port being used as PCM input and not only output.
That would allow the dongle to be fed by CD-Player, TV, etc

That is an option I loved on my meanwhile sold Ifi micro idsd...

Those instructions use a .exe file. For us neanderthals using Macs, is there an alternative method?
