My only complaint about the Expert line was the changing of the Air concept from a Mac/iTunes utility to a universal "soundcard". It hasn't worked as well since. A case of the customer(s) not always being right IMO.
Overall updates are not something I have expected from my hifi for the last 45+ years, so I don't stress over what may or may not be in the next one, or when it might be, I just spin a CD or LP, or stream a file and enjoy the unbeaten sound quality.
When an update comes along I do it, the only one which I was really thrilled by was the one when the on-line configurator was launched. That was game changing for me.
I bought my hifi to listen to music, not to dick about with.
If I want to dick about I do it with cameras
am into cameras rather than taking pictures...
