I own d240 for few years, in general I'm very happy with its performance, however I need more power
anyone knows if it's possible to run d250 as the master and 240 as the slave ?
what about sound quality ( since they are not identical )
Is it possible to run them as bi amp instead of dual mono?
my sources are:
Mac mini / J remote air only ( my d240 doesn't have Ethernet cable input)
blue ray
turntable
sonos
thx

Your d240 should be upgradable to d250 via firmware update.

I thought the only way to upgrade to 250 is by hardware upgrade ,
my 240 has the latest 8.3 firmware. please correct me if I'm wrong

Are you sure that you have a D240 and not a D Premier? You say that your D240 has no Ethernet connection - I thought that all D 240' s had Ethernet inputs?

In that case you might have a problem in just adding another D250 and making a D800. I am not an expert in this, but I think that the D Premier needs to be upgraded first. There are some others on this forum who have been down this route who could advise better, or failing that, drop an e-mail to Devialet to seek their advice.

I used to have that combo (250 and DPremier). It works but you end up having 800w on one channel and 500w on the other so some inbalance will be there.
