Upscale has been in the loop since the beginning and Sean is great to deal with…
I’m just waiting on his response.
ah gotcha.
good luck
Thank you kindly
My fingers are crossed…
Rosehan.
With all due respect, I must tell you that you’re wrong. After the latest update, my RS151 doesn’t sound like it used to; my ears don’t lie.

I am not happy with 5.9.07 on RS151 either, so I installed 5.8.03 Early Acces version.I went back and forth three times for SQ comparison and my system is pretty resolving, so I stick to EA for now. Let’s hope 5.9.09 will fix SQ issue. I had two issues in the past with my RS151, I contacted support by email and both was solved quickly and professional, so I am confident Rose team will not let us down.
Dear HiFi Rose users,
First of all, we will once again review the RS151 version 5.9.07 in detail.
In the upcoming RS151 update, we will do our best to deliver improvements that will meet your expectations and satisfaction.

What’s the status of my unit at MoFi
They state it’s fine and it is not compatible with my Krell FPB amp…lol it was fine until the update!!!
Uhm silly question… maybe you should ask MoFi…
How is the unit not compatible w an amp?
Did they say how it was incompatible?
Is there something wrong w the balanced out on the RS151?
Weird.
Lol And no not really… Something to do with amp sensitivity
Told me I could add some kind of safety to the speaker circuit… As not to blow a tweeter in a very expensive speaker set up…So the tweeters are being made in Canada. They sent me a pair of closely match for temporary repair at just under a grand and the new ones are just under 3 grand…
SO MY OPINION is someone at MoFi was just trying to bull me into giving up on the Rose RS151. Lol at my expenses!
Not a warm and fuzzy!
Upscale is working on the issue now as well as KiHoon from Rose… Fingers crossed.
FYI he called the anomaly hypersonic and can’t test or repair
I think they are saying an impedance mismatch.
It could be a real problem… like adding a resistor to the tweeter circuit.
One other thing…
On the RS151 can you set the output to a fixed value ?
I know on the RS520 you can set the output on the line out to be a fixed value.
There’s a list of ‘Preoutput Level Settings’.
How do I configure the VU meters in the Rose RS 151 to match the volume potentiometer? Currently, regardless of whether we’re setting the volume to input or output, the VU meters behave as if we were listening to music at very high volume and are too insensitive. At the same time, the VU meters in the Accup[hase have smaller VU meters and are more sensitive than the Rose.
Perhaps something can be done in the latest update to make the VU meters more accurate in relation to the set volume.
They’re currently living their own life.

Yes The RS151 has variable volume settings
My question about impedance mismatch.
It’s tough to understand this only because it is advertised as a preamp and I used it as a stand alone and multiple device control. For three months it was nearly perfect and pleasant to use… It never started to act up until the last update…hmmm
So at present I’m using a Cambridge Audio Cnx v2 as a preamp and it is flawless…No drops, no weird noises,
Just clean music. So the mystery lingers on…
I’ve heard nothing from MoFi this week nor have I heard from Rose Direct…This Rose thing is a mystery!
So Patric at MoFi is sending the unit back to me as he stated earlier that there’s nothing wrong with the unit…lol
The input impedance for my amp is 85k ohms this value is well within spec… And MoFi said not…!
Beware people of this purchase because it is not backed up by Rose…Very disappointed with my purchase!!!

Just out of curiosity… how long have you owned the amp ?
How old?
When was it last tested and serviced?
I mean how do you know its 85k ohms?
That is the spec…
Serviced in Nov of 23 by Timothy McDonald at Krell
It’s a 1997 model year
Lol and for Two months since being attached to the Rose
The Sub par Cambridge Audio Cnx v2 does the same chore…
No drops ,no shut off, no white noise
No blown tweeters
No problems what so ever.
And the Rose far more revealing!
So in my observation and opinion there’s nothing wrong with the Amp…lol
Ok…
So the reason I asked…
Is that on older Amps… you sometimes need to recap them and also check some of the resistors.
Since it was recently serviced… that answers that question.
But you were running the Rose for months before the issue, which concurred with the upgrade.
How long have you had the Cambridge in the loop?
It sucks that you’ve hit a snag … don’t know what to say.
Please provide more detailed information about where the albums are not showing. It would be great if you could attach a photo as well.
Yesterday I updated from version 5.09.07 to 5.09.09. The download went smoothly, but the restart and installation unfortunately wouldn’t start automatically. I had to force a restart, after which the update was successfully installed and the device optimized. After entering the PIN code once, everything is working perfectly again.
