Thanks for the last input, I will try that for sure!
About difference between D200 and D400, he he, the least important factor is the power increase (if you do not have extreme tricky loudspeakers) the big factors are, bigger sound scape, more details from your records, lightning fast dynamics (big factor from going D400) etc etc ie like pulling a blanket off your speakers

Kenzo, forgot the speakers!
At the moment I am running Monitor Audio PL100 but looking at preliminary replacing these with Sonus Faber Amati Futura, but will audition some more before deciding.

When I'm switching between Dolby Digital/DTS and Dolby HD/DTS-HD Master for my system there is a huge step in sound quality in every area. Even with my B&W XT4 speakers.
That sounds really nice with 200 vs 400. But isn't that what SAM can do for the 200 or most of it? I can see that Monitor Audio PL100 don't support SAM yet.
And Mikeeo, please report back, when you have tried the analog connection between your Oppo and Devialet, and tell if it sound better with the Oppo 24bit Dolby HD/DTS-HD Master? The dac in the Devialet should be better, but the resolution are better with the Oppo, if the movie don't support PCM, which the Devialet has.
