Devialet upgrading (bad) policy

[Confused]

@ Confused : sorry the 220 pro will be less expensive than the 200 ??

I understand your reasoning but the price goes up or?

and if i buy nright now this 200 "demo"  for 4990.- is save money but vs the 220 pro  make sense  pull the trigger for this 200 or better wait the new 220 pro  and have a "real new" Devialet in my system?

the price from the pro serie where are available? (not in £)

I believe the 220 Pro is 8490 Euros list price?  So clearly a 'nearly new' ex demonstrator D200 is going to be less money than a new spec 220Pro.

I have read much debate on this forum regarding the 220 / 440Pro pricing.  Speculation as to if it is best to upgrade a D200 to 220 Pro or buy a second hand / ex demo companion and go D400 etc.  All reasonable suppositions.  In your case the debate is cheaper D200 versus more expensive 220 Pro.

The point I would make is that nobody has yet heard a 220Pro or 440Pro.  So my advice is simple, wait until the new Pro models are available for demonstration.  Until then it is impossible to make any judgments with respect to value.  I could make a guess regarding the 200Pro performance based on the difference between a D800 and 1000Pro, but it would just be a guess, albeit based on some experience.  From what we know now, it looks like the 220/440Pro models should be available for demonstration from mid September.  it is not long to wait!  Oh, and if you do want a guess, I reckon the 220Pro will be significantly better than the D200.
