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

Not yet, MAC update method coming soon as far as I know.

All out-of-factory W1/W2 should be in the latest firmware. The people here have checked this a couple of weeks ago, and I believe there is non new FW recently.

Sorry, don't know much about using Macs, maybe is best to email L&P directly?

Don't own one as yet, but if there's not Mac support, I probably won't get one.

 

[musicday]

You need to understand that at the moment there is no Mac support to update the firmware, but you can use it on Mac without problems.
I am sure you can find someone to help you later on in case you need to update it.

Just placed an order for W2.

We were wondering when will you do it.

My Paw S1 has just arrived, want to compare S1 against W2 later

Congratulations, W2 seems that be wider but lighter then S1.
I've been using the S1 to watch Netflix with Bl-03 coper silver player cable and is really enjoyable but lacks a bit or power.

That should not be an issue with the W2, according to the specs

anyway not with 7Ohm Andro Gold
I want to try my Full Size Cans at some point nevertheless

I use my Spirit Torino Titano (full-size open back) headphones with the S1 connected to the 4.4 output without any issue, so they should work fine with the W2

I looked it up on their download server - the files are exe files and ONLY available for Microsoft OS - so the only way you can use MAC's to upgrade the SW is by running a Windows 7 or W10 emulation on Mac - which is easy to do and possible. Otherwise you need a good fried with a Microsoft OS to help you out... sorry. Neanderthals have died out many years ago and hence their genes only have survived in those who have mixed blood .

Does the E1da give you any improvement over the V50 dac? The V series quaddac measures very good!

Honestly, and embarrassingly, I wasn't using it properly when I first received it and may still not be, because I use in conjunction with UAPP and I can't utilize it because you lose volume control and it is set to the highest volume by default so unless I want hearing damage, I can't use any of my low impedance iem's with it. Maybe someone here can give me a work around.

Even though I have low impedance IEM's, one of them still improves with more power and my V50 doesn't cut it. That's why I bought the dongle, but I will definitely be getting the W2, if not just for the extra power but for the sound of Cirrus vs ESS. I just wish I knew how to get around the default high volume on the E1DA.
