Looking good Ian , wonder if AIR is more stable :-) part joking and part serious
Thanks - well I did solve AIR with Guillaume's help and advice from an occasional poster on here - simply by disconnecting the internet (having tried lots of other approaches too) and the new model seems to be ok using this format too!

It comes with two Audioquest NRG power cables; one Audioquest Carbon RCA/RCA master/companion link; one Audioquest Sydney cable which I guess is the trigger connection. I've not used any of these as my existing cables are somewhat plumbed in and I decided not to experiment.
The Od'A comes with firmware 9.0.1 pre-installed so I am using that for the first time too, having previously stuck with 7.1.3 and an old config file.
I'm resisting commenting on sound quality in view of the largely inaccessible nature of the changes, given that the Od'A is pretty well sold out. It is to be hoped that new 800s get some, if not all, of the changes and that equivalent retrofits are made available to existing owners who want them. This is, in my view, implied in Devialet's non-obsolescence promise made some time ago, though clearly there may be some practical limitations.
Devialet have not committed to this as far as I know, though I imagine the new A and D boards will go into new 800s at some point. I imagine the thermal management changes and the integrated power supply changes might drip down but might not but I would hope all will become clear by the time of the Munich show.

For those who have not seen it here is the Devialet release on the Od'A.
nice one Ian, very happy for you

Wow! Congratulations Ian! Good to know that there is at least one personal Original d'Atelier owner on this forum
The amps look beautiful!
It looks wonderful Ian! I hope it gives you much pleasure. Looking forward to hearing what you think of it.
