As part of the D-Premier mono setup, connected the units via the XLR for the companion. It does indeed sound better.
I'm very pleased with the D-Premier mono setup. I also find that FW 10.1.0 sounds better than 7.1.3 (at least with both sets of speakers I have on hand). For the D-Premier, 10.1.0 provides 500 watts per channel, which seems to be plenty of power for my speaker sets.
I also found a review on the D-250 where the writer claimed that Devialet stopped promoting the D-250, as the feeling at Devialet was that the D-400 actually sounded better. They instead were pushing the D-800. Not sure how accurate that is.
For me, the takeaway is: If your speakers are not supported by SAM, go for the most power you can, and don't be as concerned with getting the latest revisions.
