So, this sounds like it will do what the Auralic Aries and the Simaudio MOON Mind do - act as a bridge between the Devialet and music stored on a NAS. At about 1/5 of the price. Great news!
UPnP support seems to be implied as a future, so not clear to me what the initial release in January will provide for existing users. If the plans are that SPARK is a single app to control the Devialet and act as a Control Point for library access, this could be the killer source that some of us have been waiting for. The prospect of integration with Qobuz and Tidal via SPARK would be the icing on the cake.
Could finally get rid of my Squeezebox Touch (which are going for ridiculous prices on eBay at the moment and wold fund purchase of Dialog) and stop procrastinating over Aries, 3D Lab and MOON as sources.
Can't wait to get hold of one.
ATB, Ken
