In my humble opinion, the DG/DF units could benefit from a complete redesign regarding functions.
But, for example in 2014-2015, the combined sales ratio of those units was only 4.9% of the total Accuphase sales, so I think Accuphase is not so inclined to spend too much r&d money on them.
On the other end, a revised product (for example with a very good digital volume, more inputs, ets) would likely boost sales of for example DG units, but what about the consequent reduced preamplifiers sales?
In 2014-2015 the preamplifiers sales ratio was 20.9%... so I don't think Accuphase would risk loosing that by improving DG functionality...
