I believe your Dealer doesn't have the full picture. Using more direct Meridian contacts, I believe the following to be the Meridian position

a) That Apodizing has been improved as the filter now has more MIPS available to it. This would be consistent with Meridian's previous comments that the version of Apodizing to offer the most performance was also the one that consumed the most MIPS

b) The other changes to Clocks and Oscillators add to the overall Performance Improvements on offer from the 808.3 and the 861v6

c) That the ID40 Card is NOT necessarily the Preferred connection to a Sooloos system, when your Sooloos Control:10 or Source / Ensemble is in the same room as your main listening system with an 808.3 or 861v6. Spending an extra �1,000 on the ID40 would be fool's gold and add nothing to audio performance.
