I just loaded up 7.1.3 and agree with others...much more musicality.
Crazy what a software update can accomplish.
Details are crisper overall but there's a little more weight to the music now that makes it feel palpable in some passages.

I totally agree, also notice better low level detail with this Beta(could just be my mind is playing tricks on me)..

Happy to read both opinions...in my opinion lower midrange has more weight thus offering more musicality...
BTW. It is nice to know that Not only my credibility is in danger

Devialet sent out an email hinting towards a SAM version 2 and I mentioned at the time it could be full range SAM. Could it be that they are testing that? I'll be home tomorrow night. Can't wait to try it.

I have upgraded, and I do hear extra. Seems more airy, more vertical sound (like surround). I believe it is a bit more forward sounding, too. Mids are clearer/sharper and bass is firmer, too.

Ok my turn to wade in and make a fool of myself  
There are some subtle changes for the better. The thing I'm hearing the most is the positioning of musicians in the soundstage which has changed a little. I'm almost feeling like the music is a little smoother and more musical. That ever so slightly metallic edge to Gregory Porter's voice seems to have mellowed a little.
Is this the beta of the release that will be announced around Munich?
