This is the correct answer. Despite all the dire assertions from tea leaf readings of measurements, the M10 is a suitable hub for a sweet small room system. With my setup its discreet (hidden actually) and operated with a mobile device. I never see or touch the front display, device is behind a solid door in a cabinet. The only signal connection is an ethernet cable from which almost all the music ever recorded is available from wherever it is on the planet via a movement from my finger from my favourite chair. Dirac means you hear less room and more music. It has the potential to bring artists into the room and properly punishes poor recordings. I mean that most sincerely, its definitely got soul, not a thing that I saw measured.
So here's a summary from a long term owner who uses it every day. Power is fine. Audio quality is fine, razor edge measurements are of no consequence to the listening experience. Display sensitivity, don't care I don't use it from the front panel. Dirac elevates the listening experience, the oft mentioned neutrality of the amp merely a canvas to be transformed with the onboard DSP. Obviously the device can be comprehensively configured with the app and this is the way to go. And if you have a sub or two, there's some advanced bass management in there as well and then Dirac on top of that.
Since this review there have been a few software updates to the BluOS client and firmware. The app is great but you can also just use Spotify direct. Its easy and fills a room with awesome sound. Its not a competitor for Blue Sound products, they live in a different universe despite being cousins. I have a second streaming amp set up in another room, the M10 provides a way better user experience and just sounds - great!
But expensive!! Or excellent value. Depends on your perspective and priorities. For a small system with so much flexibility, convenience and performance its a genuine bargain.
Appreciate this site focuses on reviewing performance via measurements, but its only part of the story. The actual user experience should not be ignored either. For all those folks who declared they couldn't possibly contemplate owning something that performs so poorly according to a graph, a shame, you are really missing out on something special.
