All right, me lads, time to step up to the plate. Torreys for Junior is ready and we believe bug free.
Put another way, we’ve tested the crap out of it and can’t find any problems. We leave it to our good customers to tell us if we’ve done good or not.
Junior owners need download the attached zip file, unzip it, open the folder, copy the files inside the folder (not the folder itself) onto a USB memory stick. Place that stick in the rear of DirectStream Junior and power cycle the unit with the rear panel main power switch. The front panel logo light of Junior will begin blinking, indicating it is accepting the new code.
Test all the features, functions and operations. Publish on this thread your findings. We’ll keep watch here for your words.
A word of caution. This version of Torreys is functionally correct. It has NOT been voiced by Arnie nor myself. Once we determine there are no major bugs to worry about, we’ll send the many versions to Arnie Nudell for voicing then release the Torreys final—a version that will likely sound much better than what you have here.
This version will sound better than what you have now, at least it should. But don’t worry and don’t concern yourself about the sound quality. Just let us know as quickly as possible your findings on the (hopefully) lack of bugs.
Once we release the final Torreys Junior update code, we’ll release the new Bridge II code and then any of our DACs with Bridge II isntalled will be Roon ready.
Could we please have a Yale download for the Junior, so we could go back to Yale, if we were to have problems with Torrey beta? A safety net would be nice, as I don’t like to take chances without a safety net.

Sure. Good call. I am off to Asia in the morning but Dennis can handle for you.
What about the PWD with Bridge II? Is there any update needed for the PWD firmware or will one simply need to update the Bridge II in order for Roon to be able to stream to the Bridge II in the PWD?
I am having problems loading the Torreys. I copied the files to a USB stick and put it in and nothing happens when I power down the rear switch and then power up. It just loads the Yale.
Double check that the files aren’t still in a .zip file - if the USB stick was formatted, the four files copied to the root of the USB stick, the OS used to eject the USB stick then things should work fine.
When I look at the loader.cfg I don’t see it changing the name of the version that will be displayed, so verify that the version number screen shows:
Main: 00.93
FPGA: 00.113
USB: 00.33
Boot: 01.13
(Dang it, I asked that the version screen stay around long enough to read it…)
If those are the versions shown you have Torreys in your Jr no matter what version name is displayed.
I have the same problem as deanhorn. Tried several times, different USB drives ( even had to dig up old 500M so I can formated as FAT, otherwise is FAT32) - no luck. And yes, the files are not in the zip.
After each attempt the version stays the same as before:
