I think it's highly unlikely that a new range will replace the 120/200/250/400/800 anytime soon given all the effort that recently went into the Phantom launch. Devialet will have their work cut out with Spark not to mention the ramping up of production of what is for them a new class of product. I would expect Munich 2016 as a more realistic timeframe for a refresh/update of the Expert line. Devialet is still a very small company even if it employs a lot more engineers than anyone else.
