OK, my theory is that they'll bring out new streaming functionality either through an upgrade of the DUET interface board inside our Experts and/or a new mainboard with new DAC's, some OdA trickled down optimizations and modifications to support this new DUET interface board. If they're not both required to support this new streaming solution these may be offered seperately as entry level and full level upgrades.
Question is if they'll use a subzero cool network streaming protocol like AES67/Ravenna, a very lame but at least an open one like uPnP, a revised AIR3 functionality wise, or just simply the current Phantom solution and Spark (which could of course also be expanded with functionality like uPnP). I'm afraid it would be this last one.
I'll stop hypothesizing now, time will tell what they're really up to.
I'm not changing any of my own plans in any case until all of it is fully disclosed and understood.
