Thank you. Do you know if Questyle 600i has been fixed regarding end song ticking noises. A ticking noise when a song ends and just before another begins.
I was told that 95% was fixed on models afrer serial number 500? Can you please confirm or input to this for the benefit of owners or buyers. Thank you
It's 100% fixed on current models. Olders models can be upgraded by firmware. The 'over 500' serial number came from a UK customer who had a high 400's serial which was newer and therefore problem free. 500 then became a safe cut off, but earlier models are fine. The point is there shouldn't be a reason for any CMA600i owner to be suffering with the original click problem. If yours is it should be returned to your nearest distributor for upgrade.
However, to fully clarify. The original problem was a seriously obtrusive click, this has been 100% fixed. As with numerous other DACs, it is still possible to hear extremely quiet clicks when PC sound settings are not set-up correctly, because of mis-matching the system sample rate. This can effect playback from online platforms like YouTube but this isn't an issue specific to, or a fault with, Questyle. It's just a matter of getting audio settings correct.
Hope that helps!
