Look at the D-6s test, it is the same thing for sureMaybe SMSL afraid of Amir findings and not recommending for this things
i found a tutorial for the fimware update of the C200, it is the same process for the DL200 :

It no need to update with firmware.
Hifi-express send me the firmware,How did you obtain the DL200 firmware update, please? You mentioned Hifi Express in a previous post, but I could not find the link on their DL200 product page. I like to be sure of the source of things before installing them.
It is odd that Hifi Express provide this update when SMSL say:
Many thanks.
Hifi-express send me the firmware,
it is not on SMSL website
but many firmwares are available but not accessible on SMSL website from support pages
for exemple this one :
i think they don't want people update their firmware as there is always a risk at doing this king of thing

Hi, unless I missed it, I see that nobody tried to change the DPLL setting, which might be the cause for some problem:

If you use Squeezelite, you can try to add this to your parameters (the :1400 part) :Mine does make two quiet clicks/pops between tracks but not enough to bother me.
I'm thinking that this is a Linux issue as the DAC is only detected as a generic USB sound card, I am using the Squeezelite plugin in Volumio on a Raspberry Pi Zero 2W over USB.
I have just setup Squeezelite on a Windows 10 PC with the official driver installed and hidden settings enabled to set the "Always On" streaming mode which has been suggested to eliminate the clicks and missing track start.
I'll report back when I have tested this setup.
Thanks, I already tried that.If you use Squeezelite, you can try to add this to your parameters (the :1400 part) :

Agreed, that's why I'm testing it. This option is only available using the Windows driver but I presume could be set as the default with a firmware update.I may agree with you, although you also say "enabled to set the "Always On" streaming mode which has been suggested to eliminate the clicks and missing track start".
Now, why in hell should you need to do that on first instance?!? I mean, why is the DAC turn streaming off as soon as a track finishes... couldn't it, eventually, do so after, say, 10 minute? Or even 5 seconds...
Or let there also be a setting in the DAC's menu for that (which could be achieved even tomorrow by a firmware update...)
Helloooo, SMSL?!? Do you copy?I presume could be set as the default with a firmware update.
This is really strange, i don't have this problemI still get them between tracks of the same bitrate which I think is caused by the DAC switching power modes.
