This info would be important.
So can we say that for SQ the following is true ?
250 < 250 pro < 250 pro with CI board
And this is valid for all inputs as the CI board has a superior clock that is also used for all other components now ?
The 'Expert to Pro' upgrade scheme ended some time ago, although Devialet have advised to some that it will be recommenced once the Core Infinity upgrades are complete. So everyone posting here will be doing a comparison of Pro with the old 'Duet' board versus Pro with CI board. The only exception will be Od'A owners, who will have both the CI board added together with the 1000Pro upgrade.
As far as I can work out, there is absolutely no reason why the CI board should have any influence whatsoever on the RCA or AES/EBU inputs. However, the Ethernet and USB inputs are new. Regarding the new USB input, it should be noted that @ozthepoz observations were made with a Melco via USB, so are more comments on the new USB input rather than the 'streamer' board itself. Curiously, @Damon who tried the CI board via AIR noted similar improvements to @ozthepoz, so maybe the new clock in the CI board is doing similar things to AIR as it is with USB? The situation should become clearer as more of us get to try the CI board.
