Nick B - I'm pretty sure there was a difference in sound between 7.1.1 and 7.1.3beta. I mean it could be imagined I suppose, these things are complex, but I felt it was pretty clear difference after an evenings listen and didn't like it.
Marcor - my guess is the beta had some of the functionality of v8 (maybe SAM 2 or something) but was released way too late to get any useful feedback since they released 8 pretty much straight after. I can't imagine they're the same, as there were enough changes in 8 to require a new Configurator. BUt I could be very wrong, and its not like Devialet are very free with the info!
I'm really concerned that it might not be possible to do new configurations for previous firmware - essentially meaning you have to upgrade to make any changes.
I was still tinkering and means I wouldn't even be able to adjust my tone control settings. Has this ever happened before or its a first?
