Vinyl is very important to me as I have more than 2500 LP's.I bought D120 because I didn't want to spend more money and my turntable has a Nagaoka MP-500 MM cartridge which I use on an
Project turntable.Also I came from Naim gear like many others as I had the Supernait (v.1) before the Dev 120 along with a phono preamp.The Dev's 120 phono stage happened to be better than the one I had so I'm happy.Thin bass I'm not the only one I report it, there are several other reports not only in this site.Maybe because of my speakers.They do not colour the sound
bass,middle,treble like almost a monitor speaker.
I simply consider what the previous major upgrade did and what did this practically speaking.
D110 to D120
Gave me the chance to use USB to digitize Vinyl by enabling ADC.Better sound and dynamics.
What did firmware 8 gave me?Almost nothing and for me (as for many others) worse sound in low end.
I'm happy with 7.1.1 as you are happy with 8.0 so let's keep it this way.
