DDRC-22D hardware update on the horizon? 4 years 3 months ago #42639

I imagine that per policy you cannot speak to this, but I am very curious about any potential hardware updates that might be forthcoming on the DDRC-22D model. I am really interested in this unit, as it integrates so nicely between streamer and DAC, and works fully in the digital domain, but it is on the market for 5 years now, since 2014, so I am worried that as soon as I buy the current version, a new one will be released :( . I understand that Dirac 2 will be coming out for this machine and will run on it, but I could also imagine that after 5 years there will be an incremental update with more recent chipset, more memory, processing power etc. Does anyone know? Does miniDSP have regular upgrade cycles?

@Nieuwro

There is already one out, it's called the SHD Studio. :-)
Here is more information on the platform. www.minidsp.com/products/streaming-hd-series/shd-studio

AS for what the future holds, you already answered your own question I'm afraid.. :-( We only speak of platforms where they are very close to ship... :-)

Awesome. Just ordered the SHD Studio. I do not need the streamer or volume control components because this sits between my dedicated streamer/server and DAC, so I hope the core Dirac/DSP engine is upgraded from the 22D model. Looking forward to the sound improvements, and hopefully soon the upgraded Dirac 2 software.
