I concur that AIR V1 worked for me with my D-Premier and my Macbook via WiFi (even in the ADHOC mode without any extra router). I also thought the very first version was Mac only and limited to 16/44. But then it got "improved" and and I had to give up on AIR. I suspect that the AIR card (from first version to recent ones) are just functioning not reliable or only marginally for any higher bit-rate. I guess their additional firmware "fixes" messed up things further. So I expect just any new AIR software will not change things with the existing Wifi boards.
I guess Devialet does not want to admit that the AIR card is defective and therefore they should reimburse all owners of experts for that part. I guess the best hope for a fix is that Devialet brings out an external WiFi streamer (like a Dialog specific for the expert line) with has to be connected via cable to the amp (which one USB, Ethernet Spdif etc?) so completely eliminating its WiFi board. If we are lucky we can use a software not made by Devialet- maybe Roon?
