The first thing they should have done (nobody knows if they did) cut off DPM and Standby-Modus, and all not used Inputs and give the D just 2h of 'warmup' to make it perform better espacially on transients.
It's sad, but I think the D's belong to the most underestimated amps on the market due to not being engaged the right way. I really think the D's are a 'Diva' if not treated right it gets p... off and won't perform like it could.
Or are we rather deaf here at Devialetchat?

What can I expect by turning off DPM and standby-modus? This I haven't tried. Sorry for my ignorance.
The warmer my Devialet is, the warmer and smoother it sounds.
The standby-modus off keeps it always on temperature, so it's warm whenever I start playing music.
It doesn't cost that much extra on a yearly basis.
Got DPM turned of as well.
