So I'm not holding out because I hope Devialet will finally come through. As @Dan said, that would be pathetic given Devialet's track record. Rather, I'm waiting until I hear something that sounds as good or better, that functions as well or better, that I can afford to buy, and, last but not least, that is produced by a company I have confidence in. Haven't found that yet, might not even exist. But since I bought my first Expert 4 years ago, I haven't been looking much either. That is what might change...
Pretty much my thoughts as well. My Devialet 250 Pro CI works a treat, sounds great, is the ONLY audio system my family have ever used, and they all use it. It is a closed system so there is no need to update it. As long as Roon and Qobuz stay in business, I'm a happy camper.
