If you have an Expert and want to upgrade to Pro, cheap upgrade is good, expensive upgrade is bad.
If you have a Pro that you want to sell, cheap upgrade is bad, expensive upgrade is good.

I am in both positions, have one I like to sell and one I like to upgrade. There is no way pleasing me...

I saw this thread and had been thinking about upgrading a 200 to 220CI when they dropped the price to £2090GBP some time ago. When I looked on the website, that price had been replaced with a Contact Us button. I was very relieved to get a response (eventually) to confirm the price hadn’t gone up, I paid and and dropped my 200 at a UPS pick up point in Edinburgh. Much to my surprise, I received an email from Devialet confirming arrival of my 200 exactly 24 hours later!
I was concerned that my Devialet would be caught up in the Brexit nightmare by getting stuck in en route after 31 Dec.
Plan is to use it as half of a 440 with my other 220, though I have to say I’ve loved having the 200- it’s been a revelation.

If you love the 200 you will be blown away by the 440!
