I'm now leaning towards getting a D250 together with a NAGRA Streamer. That way I'm not as dependent on the software compatability of the older D250 and can maximize the use of TIDAL and (soon available) Spotify lossless Connect. My only hesitation is regarding having to use a digital coax cable instead of the AES or Ethernet to connect to the Devialet.
The more thought I have given to this combination the more sense it seems to make. An older but still very capable and in many ways unique amplifier with a high end streamer... should be hard to go wrong.
Am using a Wattson Emerson Digital Streamer with my 440-Pro for about a year and "it's a clear case of no return". The Emerson does its job in a great way, provides AES/EBU into my 440-Pro. And I've learnt many have followed this route and they're super glad.
