- more dynamic
- more transparent

- more "naturalness" or "realism"
- pretty much the same
- MUSICALITY is better
- more musical details
- Midrange is more liquid.
- Timbres are better.
- more dynamic
- details sounded louder and slightly bodied
- probably got some attempted fix for the air issue.
- update is to allow the 120/200/250 to be controlled by Spark/Dialogue
- seems to boot up faster.
- much more musicality.
- Details are crisper overall but there's a little more weight to the music - feels palpable
- better low level detail
- lower midrange has more weight thus offering more musicality
- more airy, more vertical sound (like surround)
- a bit more forward sounding.
- Mids are clearer/sharper and bass is firmer
- More analogue.
- positioning of musicians in the soundstage has changed
- a little smoother and more musical
- metallic edge mellowed a little.
- crisper
- more refined

;-)

I wonder if they'll ever say.  Who knows, the release version may be different to the beta?

This is the funniest thing I've read in a long time.  Either 7.1.3 has a new SAM engine or it clearly proves people hear what they want to hear even when it doesn't involve $1000 cables.

Will spend some time listening before passing judgement on what I think I may be hearing but I am encountering one glitch with the Lumin app on the iPad. The time ring to the right of the controls is now dimmed and no longer indicating remaining track length and the app is a little more sluggish. It was working pretty well before the 7.1.3 update.

Note: I do not have a Lumin streamer, I am using an iPad app to control a Moon Mind streamer and running Minimserver and BubbleUPnP Server on my NAS. Perhaps its unrelated but it does seem odd that this feature would disappear after a firmware update.

I'm not sure how would Devialet firmware affect the performance of Lumin app.

I mean, the app runs on ur iPad to control your Moon Mind to stream music from ur Minimserver . So how can Devialet interfere here?

Crazy what a software update can accomplish.

Details are crisper overall but there's a little more weight to the music now that makes it feel palpable in some passages.

I totally agree, also notice better low level detail with this Beta(could just be my mind is playing tricks on me)..

Happy to read both opinions...in my opinion lower midrange has more weight thus offering more musicality...

BTW. It is nice to know that Not only my credibility is in danger

Playing the Bucky Pizarelli Trio, so basically 3 jazz guitarists... all midrange and highs. It's a 24/192 FLAC and it's a massively detailed recording.

The sounds are coming from quite different directions, like further into the room with the speakers disappearing more. The imaging has really improved and any trace of edginess is gone, it's so natural sounding! This is superb.
