I can only imagine what their top line would do...and cost A while back many commentators were saying they actually preferred the Constellation Inspiration monoblocks to the Centaurs, a bargain of sorts (if you can call it thus). Since then the Centaurs have been updated to their second incarnation. The Centaur 2s are now just under £40k each!!

They haven't even set the AUS pricing yet so not sure where the $22k came from. They saw the upgrade pricing in the same email we all got!! They are expecting to hear more from Devialet now that pricing has come out in Europe. My intuition tells me (from my chats) that the D800 upgrade to D1000 will be approx $10k, and i was told the D-Prem might be a little more than that. We can probbaly expect a 10-15% variance on the quoted Euro pricing. Turn around time of approx 4 weeks for upgrade.

You could have some of the cheapest and most exclusive (black) 1000Pros around. I bet you're happy the upgrade is nowhere near the 22 grand you were quoted before. I phoned the dealer today and basically I think he's had enough of it and said for me just to contact Devialet direct, especially as he found out everyone was receiving emails from Devialet with costing. The guy was actually ok about it, but just thought it would actually be quicker for me to go direct and then if I was told to go with the dealer he would follow up. Those figures sound right for the difference with exchange rate and having to ship Australia - France - Australia. Enough of that, how did the event go, what did you think of the new 1000Pro, and did you get any answers to your queries (streamer board and is it free with Pro upgrade, remote app, anything about Roon, etc., etc.) RE: New product launch? - f1eng - 28-Jul-2016 (28-Jul-2016, 10:08)GuillaumeB Wrote:(28-Jul-2016, 09:57)Pim van Vliet Wrote: Wow! Constellation. Now that is some serious money. Are you saying the O d'A sounded better or the price difference between them was so high it wasn't worth it? That ruined my day! I have heard the 800 and Constellation driving Magico S5's though not at home or in the same room or for many days. I felt the Devialet was the more transparent of the two, though that could be engineering expectation bias... I can only agree that an extended home demo is the only way to choose. RE: New product launch? - Confused - 28-Jul-2016 I recall the Constellation Audio amps from the Guilford show. Not the best demo for me.... Although I was there first thing in the morning, they were cold and they do not sound their best from cold, others loved them: http://devialetchat.com/showthread.php?tid=723&pid=14183&highlight=Constellation#pid14183 RE: New product launch? - pdg540 - 28-Jul-2016 I'd like to help a current Canadian 200 owner out by contributing $500 to his or her pro upgrade......... I'll just need your 200 in exchange for my 120.

In other words, will not upgrading mean that some future SW upgrades won't be available to me? I asked Devialet support this question. The answer was that non-upgraded Expert models will be supported in all future software upgrades. I also asked whether the new streamer board could be installed in non-upgraded Expert models. As I and others suspected, the answer was: no -- though apparently this is not set in stone, as the spec of the board isn't settled yet. Matt RE: New product launch? - Stephan84 - 29-Jul-2016 DEV.

I've complained to Devialet Support about the 120/200 upgrade pricing. Maybe others might like to do likewise. |
