Just noticed Devialet have announced a new Chrome Black finish for the Expert Range.....
Saw that as well…

No other details at all.. looks like a darker color ..

Anyone else has more info?

You are most likely correct.  But, if you look at the details of each Expert Pro on the Devialet site, under Finish/Color it says 'Chrome Black'.   Go figure.
Based on the clear and detailed (as ever) information included on the Temple of Truth.  (Devialet Website)

See below for comparisons of the old finish (Black Chrome), with the new finish (Chrome Black).  Old images are taken from the upgrade page, I am assuming here that if you upgrade to Pro you do not get the benefit of upgrading from Black Chrome to Chrome Black.

As can be seen from the above the change from Black Chrome to Chrome Black is something to behold.

Although in the first comparison, the Chrome Black looks blacker than the Black Chrome, whereas in the second comparison the old Black Chrome looks a touch Blacker than the Chrome Black.  (Or does it?)

Time to upgrade to a new amp I think, I must have this.


That said, I always liked the old blue one best....

Chrome is shiny. The pictured aren't shiny, so either the colour hasn't changed and the pictured are just taken in a different light or the colour has changed and it's not chrome.
Good to see they release an upgrade. If you can call it that.
The Expert line seems alive somehow.
Nice, tempted to trade in my D250, the shiny Chrome is difficult to keep clean, picks up dirt and finger prints like no tomorrow.

I've seen matte black and white finished D250 from show photos long time ago, which they'd provide more color options.
It says "New Finish" on the web site. Looks pretty good on the pictures.

Yep. Just read it then at the top of the pictures. Strangely the pictures where it’s situated in a room they’re still shiny. Sucks if you’re about to upgrade to dual mono.
