Why shouldn´t they?
No charge for e.g. a new board and maybe new power supply? For free?
I don´t think so.

Whatever the announcement is - and let's face it it could be until at least July before we hear something definitive from Devialet - the O d'A as it currently stands is a masterpiece and a significant improvement over the 800. I do find it quite peculiar that Devialet have not made more of this - for instance there isn't a single mention of the O d'A on the Devialet website. Even the reviews have been few and far between, I believe to date I have only seen the Hifi News one by Paul Miller. Furthermore to release something that is better than the O d'A quite so soon - as some on here have been suggesting might happen - will only serve to minimise the impact of the O d'A, itself supposedly a landmark product endorsed by Pierre Emmanuel Calmel himself. I'm afraid all this does bring into question Devialet's roadmap for the Expert range. Guillaume Industry disclosure: UK distributor for Shunyata Research

I agree with Guillaume. If there is an upgrade beyond the OdA it suggests that the whole range will be upgraded and probably redesignated so maybe it's the 140, the 225, the 300, the 450 and the 900. The OdA does have a 900 designation on the case somewhere, already.
So maybe power supply upgrade options, maybe A and D boards and maybe a replacement for the AIR board. I ordered my OdA in early December and got it at the end of that month but I know others did not get theirs until March - so for Devialet possibly to now have something new - whatever the dealers were told a few weeks ago - smacks of an absence of planning, only two months later. Of course, the OdA was only a 100 issue product so one can't expect Devialet to design a full product range development around that minor(!) issue.

Nr 72 is on on it's way to me and will be hopefully here on the weekend. It will not replace my D800/Magico V2 living room setup, but will end up in my study driving the Sonus Faber Amati Futura , (it will replace a pair of Bryston. B28sst2 monos and a bps26/mps2.

Not necessarily a question of power. Devialet has to present something new for their expert series. Phantom is not the peak at all. The reflection on and the revival of the flagship?! |
