If You want rich, colourful sound from 250 Please install 7.1.3 firmware on Your 250. Then compare 250 Pro firmware 10.0.2 with Your 250 firmware 7.1.3.

RE: Expert Pro sound quality - Waiski - 26-Sep-2016 But then you loose the bass control and accuracy... And that is important to me. 10.0.2 is the first fw with acceptable bass quality in my system. RE: Expert Pro sound quality - Peter van der Laarse - 06-Oct-2016 I have got him!!!!! Since October, 6th 2016 - Dutch time 15.45 - the Devialet 220 PRO (lowest distortion in the world) is playing in my room. CD via Oppo 105D (Ry Cooder, Jazz) and custom made 110ohms Van den Hul cable, turntable Clearaudio tangential arm (lowest distortion in the world) and Stradivarius cartridge (Paul Simon, Graceland) on Quad ESL 2812 (lowest distortion in the world) and REL Studio and Stentor. I traded in the Devialet 200. (Easy upgrade rthis way) 1. I can hear it immediately 2. Breathtaking speed/ attack 3. Heard Phantom Gold at the dealer yesterday. Nice for the money. I am going to listen further. The companion is at the dealer for me also, but first a couple of months with 220.

What kind of overall distortion levels are you observing in this system? RE: Expert Pro sound quality - devi63 - 06-Oct-2016 (06-Oct-2016, 15:27)Peter van der Laarse Wrote: I have got him!!!!!

RE: Expert Pro sound quality - mdconnelly - 06-Oct-2016 Two things I'd love to learn more about... 1) Description of the sound quality changes between the 200 and the 220 Pro... what are they and how obvious are they? 2) Is the change more toward what a 400 would bring or is it something quite different? Basically, I'm wrestling with whether to consider a 200 to 220 Pro upgrade or add a Companion for a D400 (or just 2nd D200 given availability on the used market). Can't afford to get to a 440 Pro at this time. My gut says the 220 Pro upgrade is the smart long-term decision, but only if there is a substantial improvement in SQ. It ain't cheap.
