I bought a stock Amanero from amanero.com and installed it with their latest drivers and hooked it up to the B3 SE. It sounds very good but there are dropouts (hiccups) every few minutes.
How can I fix the droputs? Do I need to set switches on the B3 SE to help with this problem. Please advise.
A related question: if I bought the Hermes and Isolator from Twisted Pear, could I use the stock Amanero board I already have? Would I need to update the firmware? If so, where could I get that firmware from?

The amanero in stock mode has a fair amount of phase noise - you likely just need to set the DPLL on the B3SE higher (try setting sw1 5,6,7 to off). Also make sure your wiring is nice and short.
You can definitely use a stock Amanero with the Cronus and Hermes. I believe I describe the correct firmware and settings to use on the DIYAudio thread, but I will make sure we describe this in the documentation Brian and I are almost finished with.

This info was copied and saved by me from the diyaudio thread. The Amanero/Hermes/Cronus worked properly in my dual mono BIII. Download the flash tool from Amanero linked off the page below. Check out the readme for correct procedure (when to jumper, when to disconnect, flash, reconnect etc.) http://amanero.com/combo384_firmware.htmAmanero flash: CPLD Firmware = set to "Slave_For_1080" CPU Firmware = "firmware_1096c" or "firmware_1095b" - but do not use "firmware_1095c" as it is broken. Set config bits per image.  Edited by user Thursday, February 18, 2016 6:26:55 PM(UTC)
