If a next generation was developed right now, I might consider the upgrade though, if the new DAC would mean a leap forward in sound quality.
Actually the 220 Pro is a pretty good step up in sound quality from the 200. Improvements to the DAC section, along with a significant improvement to the ADH , improving the resolution by a factor of 4. The power supply also has a 6db improvement in the noise floor.
To me, the upgrade program offered by Devialet is worth it. This is especially true for upgrading a D-Premier to a D-250 Pro.
