My 200 is just over 14 months old with no problems until last night.
I stream iTunes from my iMac over Ethernet using the "remote" ap but after 1-2hrs on highish volume I started hearing a fast slapping type noise over the top of the music. At first I thought it was the amp then I thought the speaker drivers had come adrift but then thought it couldn't happen to both. I tried again today with no issues.
I must now assume it's a temperature issue and can happen again.
Has anyone else had a similar experience or can throw any light on it?
Cheers
Thanks Amabrok.
What's the fix, is it totally Devialet's fault or a problem due to a S/W mismatch between Apple and Air?
Hope for fix soon.

Apparently there seems to be nothing we can do as Devialet Expert owners. It had to be fixed with a firmware update from Devialet..
The thing with white night is that It is inconsistent. So not all owners get it and those who do can not reproduce it consistently.
Also if you check "a lot of hot air for Devialet" thread you will see the different steps, attempts and trials done to overcome this issue but to no avail.
I have personally expressed several times that It is not acceptable from Devialet to be aware of such a major issue affecting one of its core technologies "Air" and not attending to it immediately.. After all the whole Devialet disruptive offering is based on AHD, EVO (which also by the way has bugs in its configurator), SAM and AIR (suffering from white noise). So if you see, two out of the four pillars are buggy!
We are all hopeful that Devialet may release firmware 8.0 around Munich High End Show in May to address all that.
So let's all stay tuned!

Am I correct in assuming that using a CD transport with optical cable or playing LP's via analogue cable have no issues with "white noise " ie only streaming is the problem?

I just bought a Mac Mini with 8GB RAM, so far using AIR has not generated any white noises. My Mac is connected to my router wirelessly, while my D200 is wired to a switch. So far music up to 24/96 is fine.

There's a beta fix for Air just for windows but not for Mac as yet but that can't be far away.
