There have been lots of functional updates, and more power, but when I updated my D-Premiers to an 800 I did them one at a time. When the first 250 came back before sending the D-Premier back to be updated to 250 (so the pair of 250s would become a 800). Careful level matched sound quality comparison showed no difference in SQ using the AES input on the sort of music I listen to.
When I changed from 800 to Original d'Atelier there was too long in time between comparisons for any confident assessment.
I agree with you about the update from D-Premier to 250. In retrospect I thought it was money not spent wisely. But the update to the Pro version including CI was a very significant improvement especially for USB which I use now most of the time with my Innuos Zenith.
