I wish to downgrade to a FW that still good with the Pro CI amps ...
Where can I get hold of beta14 much spoken off ?
I have a copy of beta 14, If you PM me your email address I would be happy to send you a copy.
Are you aware of Rufus' firmware archive? Although this seems to have everything but Beta 14.

One thought regarding your midbass issue, I have played with DSP, room correction and many things. I respect your "purest" approach, and indeed, when I use room correction I can see that a degree of dynamics and detail is lost. Yes there are benefits, but keeping the signal path "pure" has it's benefits also. However, I have found that with the Devialet, the tone controls seem to have almost zero negative effects, other than the required change to the tone. Why not try the bass at +1 or +2 dB for a while? Purest sensibilities blown I know, but it might be interesting to try for a few days?
EDIT: Plus, the tone controls are fully configurable via the configurator..... (Purist sensibilities blown even further.....)
