Not a fair solution for an amp this expensive.

I note that your footer references AIR v3.0.1.    Is that on a Mac or Win 10 machine?   I’ve heard that the newer Mac OSes just won’t run the Devialet AIR driver, but the Win 10 driver may work acceptably well. It’s been years since I tried and kept getting occasional BSOD problems.  Part of my move to Roon back then was because of the AIR driver issues.   

Roon is a great streaming solution for an Expert since they integrated AIR, but only if your streaming platform of choice is Roon.  The $699 lifetime license is crazy steep, but their annual or monthly subscriptions are reasonable to give it a try.   Other streaming solutions might be better served using the USB input.

My computer is running on Windows 10, mdconnely.
Been having major problems with AIR (white noise / blue screens), which were finally solved with v3.0 public beta.
The 3.0.1 version is better sounding then 3.0 on my system though.
It also sounded much better then the versions after (3.0.2/3.0.3 release canditate / 3.0.4), which were all unstable (blue screens) as well.

Now I'm hoping 3.0.1 will be compatible with Windows 11 as I'm almost sure Devialet will not doing anything about any incompatibity issues.
If not I just have to stick with Win10.
Devialet Expert 200 (FW 7.1.3) / Magnepan 1.7i / Rel T5 / Foobar (WASAPI event 24bit) / AIR 3.0.1 public beta (best Air 3.x.x SQ by far)
