This firmware release reduces the likelihood and magntide of spurious pops associated with HDMI

sources when inputs are changed or the source audio sample rate and audio format change.

Only update this firmware if directed to do so by Bryston support personel. Updating firmware other

than when recommended to do so by Bryston may cause other issues and require further support by

Bryston.

The appropriate sequence depends on which hardware version you have. If your BDA-3 is serial number

001084 or prior, proceed to step 1. If your serial number is 001085 or greater, there is no need to apply the

intermediate update. You will update once and skip steps 5-8.
