SMSL DL200 the best ever value DAC/AMP?

I did this using VMWare Fusion on my Mac, but having the same problem, and I have no idea how to do anything in the app.
Same problem. I just used the buttons as instructed, ignoring the unreadable text. The only thing that is not very clear is that after pressing the “Start” button you have to connect the device to the mains very quickly, in a few seconds.

I did that, but it doesn't work because I'm on a virtual machine on Mac.
 
if you have the problem with "unreadable text" in the exe for update,
you have to change the "Language for non-Unicode programs" in windows to chinese
and then use google traduction for chinese
 
I will get a cheap pc to do the update. Anybody know what the update actually does?

I just plugged in my HD650's directly into the DL200 and was pleasantly surprised by the good sound quality even at low volumes around 30 at high gain or 60 at low gain. I'm using low gain at 65 now and it sounds really good. Going direct is giving me a bit cleaner and more upfront sound that works well with these headphones. It is a little lifeless and sterile compared to the OTL tube amp, but very sufficient. I feel like power is enough and I'm hearing a lot of details, more than with the tube amp, although it is presented differently.

It changes the selection and labeling of reconstruction filters to make it more correct. It might do more though.
