(EDIT: looking at the photographs in the above linked article, I note there is a kind of out of context Expert remote lurking there, maybe the Expert is not entirely dead in Devialet's thoughts....?)

My fear is that the Expert Pros are considered legacy. Don't get me wrong, I think they continue to sound amazing, but there are issues that Devialet has seemingly abandoned. #1 concern is the bugs in the Configurator - particularly for dual mono setups - that have been ignored. Ever wonder what will happen if the online configurator simply disappears? As far as I know, there is no way to edit, update or generate new configurations for Expert Pros without the online configurator. The other curiosity is whether there is any future to Devialet's Sweet Room. When they first announced it, it seemed more like things to come. Now not so much.
