New Firmware 10.1.0

[yabaVR]

I must be lured by some self persuasion factor, but this new firmware impresses me a lot.
Sam is off as usual. If I am the only one to hear a difference, please forward my post to some sci-fi thread.

NO, you're not lured.

Version 10.1.0 is definitely the biggest in firmware SQ improvement Devialet did until now. I don't know how they did it and if they're themselves even aware of the SQ improvement (I think they are not (see a deaf  here...can someone add one to the list please).

Wow...I didn't expect any improvement by firmware for my 'old' D200 anymore, but I have to say 'Chapeau Devialet'. They did it again. At least there have to be some guys within their programmers crew who know their job (even if the impact of SQ improvement happened by chance for them  ). I can only assume that minor bug fixes means that they cleaned out/shrinked down the code leading to less processing(time/work) for the cpu...don't know.

For me I'm hearing a reduction in jitter for seemingly 20-30%...it's that big for me. Precision baby...precision in every aspect has grown. I can hear the same music at +1.5 to +3.0 dB louder than before. Dynamics/control are much better.

Now it all depends on the weakest part of your audio chain to hear that much of a change I'd assume...but anyway if you have a high resolving system and/or being a tuning freak like me 10.1.0 is worth a try I'd say.
