The nice thing for DPM specifically is that we can experiment enabling or disabling it, audiophile heaven. People visiting Munchen could challenge a Devialet engineer about it.
"The presence of multiple processors in each product makes it possible to add new regular functionalities, thus enabling Devialet to innovate constantly.
Devialet has adopted a rather atypical approach — the key functions, such as power conversion within the main power supply or the management of the ADH amplification cores, are also software controlled. By improving the power supply software, we improve energy conversion in terms of its efficiency and response time. By improving the ADH core management software, sound reproduction quality is further improved."

Can someone (maybe a dealer?) confirm what functionality is or is not missing in the 8.0 update for 120 owners?
Look here:

it says:
Record Active Matching (RAM), Devialet has enabled their entire line of amps (except for the 120) to adjust multiple phono-stage parameters in real-time, including EQ curves and cartridge sensitivity.
Thanks Flyer for the clarity around phono. I'm keenly interested to know if the other updates (SAM2, power management, and the home theater reproduction thing) are or are not available on the 120?
I'm not sure the article is accurate. As I said I don't have a turntable. But somewhere on this thread someone with a 120 claimed to have used the phono features (I think). And when I go into my configurator it allows me to use RAM -- or it appears to. Now I haven't tried it but it certainly lets me set those things on the 120.
