This is great news and to my eyes a clear sign that Devialet is still working on the Expert range.
Trying to generate additional revenue by adjusting the pricing to the expectation of the market is something you do when a product is still alive.
The new pricing sounds right.
It’s also a good sign for possible future paid updates. Devialet never said that CI was the last hardware update ever. There could be more. That would be bad news for competition considering that very few amps approach the level of the current Experts.
On another positive note, my contact in Devialet support is telling me they are making progress with the identification and correction of the network issues with Raat. Without a release date yet but it’s still encouraging. Now July and August in France after the covid are going to be quiet months so we will see.
Cheers,
Bernard
