A few months ago when I decided to revisit AIR I was actually surprised at how good AIR sounded, dare I say better than the MiND. Yes AIR seems more transparent and definitely "brighter" than the MiND.
Take a look at this thread where I posted my findings:

Thank you for the pointer !

I also started thinking to try out different digital cables to see whether it can improve the sound.
I initially though that Nordost Valhalla is a good choice here, but apparently no the best one in my settings.
After my Moon mind experience, I started questioning the appraised AES/EBU input of Devialet.
Do you use a RCA-XLR cable to connect your Master and Slave units ? or RCA-RCA.
It seems like everybody is confused about using 75 vs 110 cables here...

Can you please suggest if the situation with SQ improves with Devialet 800 in comparison to 250 ?
I have a feeling that when playing D250 at low sound level, I want the sound to be more detailed, but currently with my D 250 set-up at low levels it may sound like losing the details a bit.
Is it something other owners experience?
I have speakers rated 4 Ohm, but maximum 400 watt.
I do not intent to play them at maximum, but rather looking the improvement in sound quality at lower levels.
