Tried this today but nada. I find it interesting that when I play a track in Roon I see the AL and it sound bars are active, yet no sound, anyone else ?
Yes. #Metoo
My Airlens is visible on the network. I can ping it and see it active in Roon.
Just no I2S stream out of the HDMI output.
Check the back of your Airlens. I suspect the status LED is flashing amber.
I have tried a factory reset so many times Iâve lost count.
Iâve tried flipping all the DIP switches OFF. Reboot. All back ON. Reboot. No joy.
Iâve given it a stern talking too, but itâs ignoring me.
Iâve sent a support request to PSAudio. Fingers crossed!

When itâs good it is very, very good.
And when itâs bad, its awfulâŚ
That is why my Auralic Aries G1.1 rests under it, connected to USB on the DSD MkII and the network via WiFi. It also acts as a server.
FYI for everyone having that orange light issue. We are currently testing a new build for the airlens. Weâre hoping to have the fix out ASAP. Some people may have downloaded a beta update over the weekend by accident. We had the beta build up on our update server for internal testing and it may have snuck out. It most likely failed on units.
Once the update is live we will post it on the forum.
Aaron, was the beta 4.3.95? I just checked MConnect and there isnât an update there. Iâm on 4.3.71.
The update we are testing is off of the OTA server. Thereâs two updates to the airlens, the converse module and the firmware. 4.3.95 will be the latest.
Weâll have more info here soon. We have some internal testing happening right now. With great results! I couldnât get my airlens to quit over the weekend. I was HARD on that thing. haha
Hang tight
And at least one external tester can also report success! Iâm back up and running
Many thanks to Aaron & Taylor at PSAudio and Mike at Magenta Audio
I also have v4.3.95 from MControlâŚdoes this mean I have the v2.6.2 Airlens update? or just the MControl update?
They are separate and distinct updates.
I wouldnât advise doing the 4.3.95 update via MConnect. Thatâs what borked my Airlens.
Iâd wait for PSAudio to make an announcement.
Cheers
Mark
Definitely agree!
I kind of inadvertently did the 4.3.95 and my AirLens is working greatâŚ
So did I which triggered another round of the Flashing Orange of Doom. Once overcome, I found I had gained vTuner HLS capability to stream the likes of BBC Radio 3. But it should be a smoother process between streamer and device firmware. Guess we are all learning.
Me too, until a power outage brought back the flashing orange.
Hey all!
I just put out the preliminary airlens update in this post here:
Airlens v2.7.0 - Preliminary firmware update - Network Audio - PS Audio
If you are having issues with your airlens you can try this update!
Hi Aaron, if you have already updated prematurely, should you still use that link?
Thank you.
If youâre still having issues, then yes.
If your airlens is on 2.7.0 youâre good to go!
FWIW, I had no issues doing this.
I got Green again
The release notes in the .zip file I was sent did say âFixes for rare cases where streamer software locks upâ. So it doesnât affect everyone, and even some who were affected managed to get going again by doing a Factory Reset and/or various other voodoo.
Interesting that the AirLens manual does not list MConnect as a method of updating Core firmware.
I wonder if that is âofficiallyâ supported?
Unfortunately, PSA manuals are not known for being complete and well-edited. The module inside the AirLens, mConnect, and the firmware for the module are all produced by Convers Digital; things canât get much more official than that.
