Shouldn't that be 2017? That is at least what they said in previous messages and sound logical given that the time between the upgrade program and the release of the OS card would be too short to not combine the two.
It's free as long as you order the upgrade before 31/12/16. Delivery of the OS card somewhere in 2017.
Do we know if the new streamer will be available on the old line (d200 or d400) or is it only for the new, upgraded units? They seem to imply it all be available because they assign it a value ($1500) in the upgrade offer. . .but I don't really know.
excellent question. But I think a new architecture has been made and will receive the card later... so I guess not
The new OS card will only work on the pro models
I hope the new PHONO stage will be better. I must admit I do not listen to LP's as the 400 is superior to my LP 12 (missing Ekos arm and Keel > too expensive). And I do not want to invest in another phono box.
Is the phono stage new? I've not seen too much discussion on this yet....
Radikal on your LP 12 and Keel; argh
you must be in heaven. How do you compare the D and LP 12 in terms of restitution quality ?

A good question. There have been many reports of the existing models having some issues with low level phono stage hiss. More recently, there was a review of the 1000 Pro posted that stated the phono stage is totally silent. So some evidence that the phono stage is revised. However, this still leaves the question, is the phono stage revised as part of the Expert to Pro upgrade?

As long as wifi switched off I had excellent results with low output mc systems both on the OdA and the D800!tested with various systems with extremely good results. Make sure wifi is switched of for phono usage.
