The guy I had over the phone said Devialet did not want to be dependent of Streaming services anymore (Tidal etc...).
Not sure whether i should upgrade my pair of Golds - I've never really experienced any issues so far using Spark and Dialog.
Of course there has been some minor glitches, but other than that everything has worked like a charm.
AI also use both the radio stations and Tidal in the Spark app daily - what was Devialet thinking removing this?
How am I supposed to play lossless audio from Tidal now without straming through AirPlay or Bluetooth?
Don't know about the rest of you guys, but I was one of them hoping for a proper EQ-setting in the new app, they didn't deliver on this either.
All in all I can't really se the benefits with upgrading. I see many of you comment about improved sound quality, this does of course trigger my curiosity - but I guess I'm more stressed up about screwing up a well working system...
