What is the problem with the current DAC?
There isn't one, from a technical pov it is transparent.
From an urge to update pov it is an ideal candidate.
OTOH I am afraid that anybody who believes DAC technology is still advancing from a SQ pov shouldn't buy any of Devialet's products since they will inevitably become dissatisfied as time passes.
