D800 upgrade, is it worth it? Alternatives?

I can get one of these for significantly less than a D440. On paper it does everything the Dev can, but more. Roon & MQA ready, 300w/8ohm Ncore, controllable phono, eq and bass management, filters etc. And what seems to be a fully functioning app... Can't believe Devialet still haven't sorted their own inadequate one. Also all in one box.

Can't wait to give the ACI600 a run and compare to Devialet.

Isn't MSRP on the ACI600 $25k (US)?    I thought the 440 Pro was like $20k, no?   Maybe you know someone who knows someone  Big Grin    

But damn, it does look impressive.   Can't wait to read the early reviews... It seems precisely targeted as Devialet competition, yet a bit better on most fronts (well, on paper anyway).
