Firmware Version Display
Firmware is the system software that controls the features and functions of your Sonica DAC. The
Firmware Version screen displays the current firmware versions installed in the Sonica DAC. There are
three parts of the firmware, each with its own version number: the main firmware, the MCU
(Micro‐Controller Unit) firmware, and the USB DAC firmware.
Upgrading the Firmware
From time to time OPPO will release firmware updates to improve product features and functions, or to
fix issues reported by customers. For the best user experience, we strongly suggest upgrading the
firmware to the latest release.
There are two ways to upgrade the firmware:
Via Network ‐ Sonica DAC will automatically download and install the upgrade through the Internet.
You will be prompted via the Sonica app when a new firmware version is available for installation.
Via USB ‐ Sonica DAC will install the upgrade from a connected USB drive which contains the
firmware file. The firmware file and instructions can be found on OPPO Digital's website.
The USB DAC firmware does not change often. If a new version becomes available, the firmware file and
instructions will be made available on OPPO Digital's website under the "Support" section for the Sonica
DAC product.
