Core Infinity board

[agentsmith]

Sorry to be blunt be I really don't understand why people still allow themselves to be victimized by this company. Many of you have known the company for years and it could/should be clear by now they don't change.

Why would you buy (or wait for) anything based on promises from this company that never delivers on time or communicate about anything? Thus far they -completely suck- at software too so unless your standards are quite low (agentsmith are clearly anything but) you'll not be happy anytime soon with anything they deliver. Perhaps in a few years after several iterations. As long as they insist on developing anything themselves from scratch it'll always be a catching up game. Other parties are moving much faster and doing a much better job as specialists. Would be nice if Devialet would partner up with those companies but why wait for anything uncertain to happen. Please, just move on, there's so much more great stuff out there. Why do we keep rewarding them, with our money, if they don't deliver, listen or change?

To conclude I am very happy with my new stance: I don't expect anything from Devialet and only evaluate at the moment they actually deliver something concrete whether I'd like to use what they delivered.

I am not as critical to them, perhaps because my expectation is lower.  I can understand that they are a growing company probably struggling with multiple ambitious projects.  I wouldn't say that they do not deliver what they promise because so far they have not failed, they may be slow, but they have not failed yet.

They are also super secretive and rarely communicates, even more secretive than Apple.

I am somewhat disappointed that the streamer board are taking so long.  But my understanding is they did promise mid this year.  It is a long wait.  But I am still enjoying the unit they way it is.  I rarely have time to listen to the system anyway, perhaps that makes the wait less painful?   

What I am mostly miffed is they seem not to be working on Roon support.  I did talk to my local Devialet gent who is a super nice person.  He did hint to me that they are working on Roon.  And he knew all about Roon and liked the product.  So I would be surprised if they are not working on it at all.
