Hang in there guys. Good things are worth waiting for. I'm pretty sure something good, if not great, will be announced soon.

Just been to a devialet store, because of a few questions about the trade-in program and the d200. Obviously I also tried to get news from the salesperson about the upcoming release. Here's what I heard about the expert line:
- there's a new d1000 coming up soon. Whether this will come as a software update or hardware upgrade of the 800 or entirely new hardware he did not tell, but apparently it is going to be a dual setup.
- it's 'likely' that the release also contains a new firmware for all lines
- when asking about timeline he referred to the next 2 weeks.

My guess is new hardware - the sales guy that I spoke to in Paris recently mentioned something about leveraging the new motherboard they developed for the O d'A.
Hope I'm wrong, as I'd love to get a power uplift from the firmware, but my guess is a further iteration of the O d'A, but less "exclusive".

If it's the minor upgrades introduced in the O d'A, I wouldn't be to concerned as an existing expert owner.
Now if they do a hardware upgrade to the digital side of things as well that would cause some wallets to want to open. I still think to fix Air it's going to take a hardware upgrade, no driver takes 2 years to fix. Not even ATI takes that long to fix a driver.

They've just sold the last Od'A or are about to, releasing a new D1000 makes no sense. Perhaps they'll make the Od'A 1000W (isn't there still only 650W PSU's inside it BTW?) through a firmware upgrade like already mentioned here: http://devialetchat.com/showthread.php?t...7#pid39877

I've bought but not yet been able to pickup my Od'A. Fingers crossed it's not obsolete before I plug it in for the first time....

Good job you didn't say ten guineas (£10 and 10/- for those under 55).
