Here we go !! After 74 exciting pages you can test it finally . Have a blastImpressions coming soon. As the person who started this thread, I got them so much later that a lot of you due to my own traveling schedule.
I should be receiving a loaner unit of W1 soon for a cross-comparison. I have iPhone 12 and my wife has iPhone 11, so I should be able to test the EMI issue with different phones as well.

Why 1.0.2.0 instead of 1.0.2.1?OK I got my W2 updated successfully.

I was told that these two are the same. I guess if you use the bin file 1.0.2.1 it will be the latter version. I just happened to do it with the 1.0.2.0 bin file.Why 1.0.2.0 instead of 1.0.2.1?

I downloaded the new Firmware and here are my findings. The ASIO driver now works with JRiver MC for PCM with 44.1/48/88.2/96/176.4/192 Khz bit rates but not with 24/352 format files. DSF files via native DSD to ASIO work for single rate files DSD 2822.4K. Dual rate files are being detected and played but the playback is not stable. Switching between PCM and DSD files froze the machine.Latest FW: W1_V1.0.2.1_AS
Please check the OP for the latest FW update package!
- Add the Xelento-tuned EQ
- Add the self-adapted UAC connectivity mode
- Fix W2's balanced DSD output issue.
- Improve connection stability.

At this stage I uninstalled the custom driver and went back to the inbox Windows UAC driver. With that driver all PCM files are playing fine just as before up to the max in my library which is 24/352. DSD is working as DOP with up to dual rate files DSF128 sometimes skipping but mostly stable. Listening to the new Beethoven 9th from Reference Recordings and it is quite nice.
Nice job!!
A little more tuning on the stability of dual rate files and this will be great.

Updating was very easy, great to see L&P improving this already great product. Still is not detected by my Windows 7 laptop, even they mentioned abooit the self adapter UAC connectivity mode.Latest FW: W1_V1.0.2.1_AS

Updated on my girlfrieds NTB W10. Why doesn't LP do an update tool for Mac? Is it that complicated?

1.) just mount W1/2 as drive
2.) User copies bin-file to root-folder
3.) W1/2 to install the bin file from there
that procedure will work in all platforms
I strongly suggest that they implement a procedure like Lotoo:Updated on my girlfrieds NTB W10. Why doesn't LP do an update tool for Mac? Is it that complicated?

@bluestorm1992 any idea how we can centrally collect change requests to be sent to L & P?Thank you, nice and easy, hopefully they will pick up on the suggestion
In other threads there is always a representative of the manufacturer who can be addressed.
Or is there an email adress where we can send such things to?
I once tried sending an email to Lotoo on behalf of S1 and got an error email could not be delivered (potentially due to China communication restrictions from Europe?
No clue how about L & P...
