Some sign of Expert line

[Axel]

Hi,

I am sorry, hut I don't understand the agitation regarding missing updates for the Expert line. I have a Expert 1000 Pro CI Dual Mono at present after starting with the  Devialet Premier amp. I never regretted updating to the CI and I have no problem with the firmware; maybe because I prefer cabled instead of WiFi.
Before the D Premier I had a history of 30 years of at least two middle class cars (in terms of value and money) in changing configurations in my living room until I found the D-Premier. I am really satisfied because its SQ tops al my earlier gear. I have no desire to juggle with firmware updates that may address some problems that most people don't have.
I was so content with Devialet that I purchased the Phantom Golds (DB X1) for another apartment. And again, I am very happy and content and don't consider replacements. It was a surprise when I discovered a firmware update yesterday. But after some initial fiddle it worked as it's supposed to.

Of course, everybody is free to desire changes in their gear and updates and upgrades of firmware and software. I don't, because for me music is the primary reason to listen through the hardware. Unfortunately those with the audiophilia nervosa affliction (that I also had in earlier times)  bet on the wrong horse. Fortunately, the Devilaet stuff is not for tweeking. It's a largely finished piece of art that is able to reproduce music as it's supposed to sound...in my humble opinion.

I’ve got to agree with you, Mohmm.  In my case, what ain’t broke don’t need fixing.
