Will Devialet ever release new Expert features?

Also from what I heard from insiders, they are far from struggling both in terms of cash flow and development.  Apparently they are "ahead of schedule" in development, but of course they cannot tell us that.

It is much more relaxing to not continually look for updates but to listen to music, I find.
When there is an update I am thankful since my Goldmund amplifiers didn't have one in the 15 years I used them in my main system for listening to music several hours per day.
What is it that the Devialet needs?
OK there is always the question of streaming, where no logical standard seems to exist in the hifi business so the multiple choices are variously irritating, inconsistent and often useless (for classical music). But the inputs for normal sources are state of the art to my ears and I can enjoy LPs, CDs and streaming for background pop music without fretting about updates.
When the streamer board and other updates become available for my amp I will look forward to them, though the streamer board is of little interest to me unless it magically finds classical works in a logical sequence until then I have been simlpy listening to music.

I really think Devialet made a rod for their own backs by making their amp user updateable. Most other high end companies make it dealer only or difficult in the rare case where an update is possible, mostly it isn't of course.

I understand that upgradability is not necessary nor possible in most platforms.  Although I was surprised to find that that the dCS Debussy which I bought years ago is still being updated with new improvements, this time quad DSD or something like that.  

But with the new computer audio where technology keeps changing, people expects some upgradability for high end components.  While you may not think much about this feature, upgradability and versatility are key reasons why we bought this machine.

And do not forget that we paid a handsome sum to have a next generation upgrade, not update.  It is something that was paid for like a new component.

So I respectably disagree when you think Devialet is doing us a favour by having their machine upgradable and promise new upgrades.
