It bricked my D250, remote and iOS App stopped working.
Was able to make it work after several power resets, reloading the software, config file and taking the batteries out of the remote.
That's great @
Saint0. I've never heard of anyone bricking an Expert before. I've read it plenty of times with the KEF LS50W. The Expert can be a bit iffy but chances are good you'll work kit out in the end.

I think the update/upgrade/install takes a bit longer than the others but working quite good for now.

It did take a while. There's lots more to install now than with the non CI Expert.
All of us are focused on RAAT/Roon ready part of the update but I made some measurements with my miniDSP UMIK-1 and there are significant changes in other input sources also. I think overall there are updates in all the ecosystem of the unit. Probably the update is not limited to Roon ready while it has been marketed in that way. I will keep testing/measuring but there is a clear improvement on the low frequency bass parts for now.

That's an interesting discovery - can you share your before/after measurements?

Very interesting, what are you seeing in the measurements, changes to frequency response, distortion, group delay or something else? Is this with or without SAM?
I'd like to think I was going to spend the time trying this myself, but I probably don't have the time, or more accurately when I have the time won't have the inclination, I didn't even bother to apply the new firmware last night, just listened to music instead, like a normal person
