That's a weird way to sell an upgrade - sign up, and in a few weeks we'll tell you what you signed up for...

Is it possible that the page wasn't even meant to be available right now - is there even a way to access it through Devialet home page? Could the "few weeks" refer to few weeks after official anouncement of upgrade program and Devialet Pro, which could be in September (or later)?

Google sometimes finds funny things. A few years back I accidentally stumbled upon XTZ audio price list - for official dealers, with prices without dealers' margins and VAT. It was quite illustrative...

I believe ZERO relates to the amount of sensible communication that Devialet are planning to provide their loyal customers over the next couple of years.....

I'm also wondering about this. I can't get to this page going through the Devialet website. I also noticed a "US" in the URL: http://en.devialet.com/expert-upgrade-al...best-en-us  - could this page be destined for USA? I also note that the O d'A is listed under "your current equipment" which would suggest that the O d'A will soon be becoming obsolete. 

It goes without saying that any announcement about a better model is likely to be a sensitive topic for O d'A owners - I think Devialet need to get a handle on this and start communicating! There have been rumours circulating for over a month...

This is a good point I think, I have just had a look at Devialet's website and there is no indication of this upgrade or anyway to sign up to a priority list.  I might be wrong, but it looks like this one may have slipped out unintentionally.

Just had a thought...(I do that sometimes)
- I bought a Devialet 170
- Then I got a Devialet 200 through a firmware upgrade
- Then without any changes made to it but just because the Phantom was introduced I got a Devialet Expert 200
- And if I do the upgrade then I will have a Devialet Expert Pro 200

I can feel an identity crisis coming up  Tongue
