[Official] SW Ver 5.9 (Rose OS 5.9.09) Software Release

Of course you do. Because you are a typical PHB and have absolutely no idea what any of those fancy words you keep using actually mean.

And yesm, IU am., Learned more physics in high school than you had ever seen in your basket-weaving class.

Having to repeat the same thing to every idiot that comes in thinking that they know something no scientist does?

Of course he could not. Neither can anyone else, because “audiophiles describe” meaningless drivel about “soundstage” and “darker blacks” and “lifted veils” and “wife heard from the kitchen” after they had replaced their cheap fuses with $600 ones.

He could not. I can’t. And neither can you. It’s non-falsifiable nonsense that has no basis in any objective reality.

Is that your dream life? Maybe one day your family will be able to get you that Xbox instead of the second-hand NES you are dropping pieces of an already-eaten hot pocket on right now…

Last week, HiFi Rose mentioned that this week they will finally release the firmware updates for the RS151. Can you give a schedule?

That I want also to ask.

And please: Stop this kindergarten discussion in nearly every thread, which makes this forum more or less senseless.

Hello,

I received the new update. Is it possible to get the patch notes for the new RS151 version 5.9.08 update?

Thanks,
Fred

@fredg101

Please check the link below:

My RS130 does not play audio from Roon since this update. Its seen by Roon and it displays album art but does not play audio. I have restarted the unit, tried early access version, went back to official release but no luck.

Any help appreciated.

@fittebd had a solution for this problem.

“In the audio in and output menu click the little gear in the usb section. It takes you to the menu below. I clicked both the software vol control on and the usb audio vol control on. Saved. Then turned both off and saved. Then rebooted the unit. When it came back on and roon attached it was fixed. Roon was muting it when it really should not. It thought vol control was there. This bumped it.”IMG_7620

If you would like to test the fix for the Roon playback issue before the official version is released, please send your Rose ID (Settings > System Info) to the email address below. We will then send you an email with instructions on how to update.

Hello @ROSEHAN , @Rose_love
Have you identified why this version changed the sound signature of our drivers compared to version 5.09.07?
Will the next update restore the previous sound signature?

Thank you,
Best regards

We did not make any changes to the sound quality when distributing the update from version 5.09.07 to the current version 5.9.09.

Could you please check whether the FIR interpolation phase filter setting on your Rose device has been changed to a different filter?

Hello @ROSEHAN,
Thank you for your response.
Ah, I thought so because several of us, though not all, were complaining about this.
We even had the option to go back to version 5.09.07.
I chose to switch to EA 5.8, which restored the previous sound signature.
I’ll pay attention to the FIR next time.

While I’m at it, I’d like to ask you once again if you could work on VLC so that it displays chapters. I watch a lot of concerts, and it’s frustrating when you want to jump directly to a specific track.
Thanks again.

@ThierryMC
After the recent update, the only change related to sound quality is the filter name. There have been no modifications to the actual sound quality.

As you can see in the picture below, the filter names used in the previous version have simply been changed to the new names shown on the right after the update.

After updating, your Rose device may have automatically switched to “Minimum Phase Fast Roll-off (Default)”. We recommend checking your filter settings and re-selecting the filter that matches the one you were using in the previous version.

The default Minimum Phase Fast Rolloff provides a balanced sound, so we recommend using it for initial use.

It’s best to adjust the filter settings to your personal preference.

I just received a notice to upgrade my 151 to Rose v 5.9.0.8.

I havent been paying attention to whats been going on behind the scenes with software, however I could swear when I performed this upgrade the sound blew up.

I’m running through a roon nucleus.

I hopped on the forums and saw comments from people saying that a previous software upgrade had degraded the sound. I’ve been trying to figure out if my sound had gone flat or what was going on, but I never thought to check the forums.

So am I correct in my understanding that the new rose software upgrade has corrected a sound degradation issue and what I’m hearing is actually improved sound?

The most important thing is your feelings, if you think that the sound is better for you, then you just have to be happy.

I’m asking a question based on reports from people over the past few months about the updates.

Take what you read here with a grain of salt.
Some claim to have heard a difference, others do not hear the difference.

As Cougar said, if you like the sound, be happy and enjoy.

If you feel that the sound has clearly improved, that is great to hear. However, I would like to clarify once again that we did not make any changes related to sound quality in this update.

The most important thing is your personal listening experience. If you feel that the sound has improved, then please just enjoy it.
