Upgrade 120

[Rocketmannequin]

I also bought a demo 120 for a great price which I then upgraded to the 220 Pro with CI. The acquisition of the 120 was already already expensive, but a significant step up in SQ and design from my former Sony surround receiver. The upgrade was much lauded, but personally I didn’t detect much change in SQ for the price of the upgrade. I would expect diminishing returns for every investment made, but wanted the new functionalities of CI and the eventual integrated Roon RAAT. In the meantime am much enjoying the Spotify Premium direct connection which is an excellent means of discovering music. Also, the upgrade process resulted in Devialet polishing up the chassis to perfection and fixing a few things from the demo model I had; it felt like a completely new unit. It’s all in all a lot amount of money, but the audiophiles on this site aren’t here for purely rational reasons!
