New beta firmware 7.1.3 released

I reverted back to 7.1.1 too.

Had issues or just couldn't hear the difference and went back to production version?

No issues - I could hear a difference and didn't really like it. 

To my ears the sound was harsher, and I would agree with another poster to the sibilance. I found the sound slightly more forward and aggressive and contrary to many, less analogue.  To some that is probably 'more detail', but to me it feels like Audirvana+, which I recently abandoned as I found the extra treble emphasis made the sound grate a bit. All subjective obviously, and I'm in a situation where my room is on the edge in terms of brightness so it doesn't take much. 

Returning to 7.1.1 felt better. 

No idea what sorts of issues people have. For me, air is the problem - whether that's in the device or on the osx software I don't know. But once again, left it playing while I was out for an hour, only to come back to that throbbing/pulsating noise. I'd say it's the weakest aspect of the Devialet experience so far by a mile. It would be what makes me move on to something else. 

Hmm - Gone back to 7.1.1. Not keen on the 7.1.3 update - coarse and ill defined bass. 

No issues for me with 7.1.1 (Audivarna + via USB) so i'll stay here for now.
