Interesting points. Understand that the D800 is not really the best seller, low two digit sales apparently.
It doesn't help that the Expert 1000 Pro will be priced higher than the OdA over here. Madness, since a potential 1000 Pro buyer could be looking at the OdA instead.
Oddly enough, there are at least 2 pre-orders for the 1000 Pro but the lone OdA, which is cheaper, languishes. Seems odd initially but, with the 1000 Pro, the latest and greatest is instantly available while an OdA owner will have to wait till 2017 for the update - unusual turn of events, isn't it?
Still, it would appear that the 440 Pro will be the sweet spot, even if the 1000 Pro (based on the 400 vs 800) is likely to have the slightly warmer sound.
