So Emotiva conceive, design, market and sell a product they openly admit to not having the in house expertise to deliver.
Mind you audio companies delivering products with dodgy software is not that unusual. Even the fabled Dutch&Dutch 8c has as long history of bad firmware and endless missed deadlines for promised features ( as I understand it). Devialet is another audio company with high technology ambition and some questionable integrated software.
If your planning on offering a device that needs firmware, get some software people onboard. Don't treat it as a aside.
Saying all that Emotiva seems to of messed up the bit they are ment to be good at too.
Oh my.
People really need to start contracting folks like RME to handle their on-device software at least. Everyone in audio is relatively back in the stone age compared to the rest of the technological industry. We have credit card sized computers that run Linux desktop distributions for goodness sake. These companies either have no brain, or are simply complacent with the no-brain customers that still give them business.
