Well not quite, my serious prediction is the active wireless rechargeable headphones as posted, coincidently, in that thread on 1st April.

Gathering dealers together from all over the world has to be justified by something really saleable - so that suggests something new and not too pricey with great volume opportunities and in an area where innovation has been weak.

That this product possibility has been denied might add to the feasibility of the proposition. It is Devialet after all.

I love the idea of CAM (cable active matching) technology so heard on 1 April.

Heard the same rumour from a Dutch Devialet dealer. Only the date was April 29th. No disclosure there either, but I was hoping the scale of the event pointed at a really big announcement.

The same rumour?  Are you referring to the most splendid CAM system, or something else?

So we speculate that the hot news is one of:

1 New small cheap DAC/amplifier (boring)
2 New board to replace the existing AIR one (without any AIR solution promised)
3 Dialog integration with Expert (even more boring)
4 active wireless rechargeable headphones (though this has been denied)
5 domestic liquorice allsorts* making machine (most likely)

* I live in Pontefract, the home of the liquorice allsort

And most importantly the cake :-)

No idea what the announcement from Devialet has been. So not referring to anything special. Just the message that all dealers where invited to Paris for an important announcement or product introduction on April 29th. I suppose we will all learn in a short while if it is to be a major announcement or not. If anything, I am hoping for some Od'A technology to trickle down to the expert range and maybe in that light implementing some upgrades in SQ for current owners.

New Fireware for SAM to tackle frequencies up to 300 Hz?

It's been a long time since last firmware update happened in last December which was only to include O'dA in configurator and 'prevent crosstalk' something like that and nothing else.
