I don’t know if I am doing the right thing without authorization. But since China is now a holiday and they will not answer me, I spread it at my own risk. Link
p.s Sorry for the clumsy language, I translate through Google translite.
Yeah that’s probably some quirk with Chi-Fi...is that the way a 500$ + dac is fixed nowadays ? .. i mean wtf is that
I have to admit this chi fi sound pretty good. But I almost send it back to amazon alteay just because if this ....Yeah that’s probably some quirk with Chi-Fi...
yeah... actually Sabaj people are pretty nice but seems that they are doing themselves a disservice by making firmware updates so secretive.I have to admit this chi fi sound pretty good. But I almost send it back to amazon alteay just because if this ....

I've done it. Smooth process.My firmware update tool is out for delivery today. Has anyone gotten theirs yet and done the update?
Volume of 40 gives you 2v line out rca signal which is very typical level as a line out to a preamp (or preamp section of integrated amp).hi guys , question regarding the unit ... i using RCA out to another amp ( jds labs atom Or emotiva basx a-100 )
the output is not fixed ( line out ) the knob still controlling the sound ... and when the sound is maxed out on the sabaj d5 , i can hear distortion on the 2 other amp.
what sound i set the sabaj's volume at when i use the dac only ... this is stupid tho .. should be fixed ... line out !?!?!

Not nearly as good as 789 (of course) and even below JDS labs Atom.
See Amir's first post and comments in the headphone measurement section.
More suited for low impedance headphones, less suited for high impedance headphones.
See the headphone out as an added bonus, not as one of its main features.
How audible differences will be at 'normal listening levels' remains to be seen.
Subjectively the 789 will make a huge differences. Objectively when staying within the max. current and voltage limits of the amplifier section of the D5 it won't make much, if any, difference.
The Atom, however, can play 6dB louder compared to SE d5 and equally loud as the balanced d5.
Of course, when you listen at normal listening levels you would not reach the voltage limit of d5.
This would be peak levels of 119dB so average power would be a pretty loud 100dB or about 90 Phon with music.
Thanks! Would you please share the update procedure? I received the tool yesterday but there is no instruction on how to proceed.I did the upgrade to 1.4 with no issues. Can confirm it fixed the volume knob issue and the clock/sample rate issue.
