If they had a policy for the CXN v2 and could guarantee me that they will still be providing updates for the coming x years, I would not avoid buying old product, so don't agree with that statement. Transparancy would be fine...

Dear,
Does someone have an idea when CA will release a new version of the 851N or CXN v2 ? I think the 851n is on the market since 2015, the CXN v1 idem, the v2 since 2018. That's at least what the firmware release notes are telling me...
Looks like new functionality (e.g. Qobuz support) was added to the more high end 851N, but not to the CXN v1 (released in the same year).
I'm interested in their streamers but since streamers are all about software now, I prefer not to buy 'older' products and risking to run out of updates soon. Been there with my Minx Xi, but ok, I can accept it from an entry level device.
Thanks for any remarks or recommendations.
Best regards,
Wim
