I have a DaVinci 888 DUI with the network panels and I had bought a Euphonix set (MC-Color and MC-Transport) to run with Color. The DaVinci network panels are real tanks possibly a bit nicer than the CP series but the same fit and finish and weight.
The MC-Color/Transport are nice but I am sure I could take one of the 888 panels and smash them to bits without even making a scratch on the 888 panels...
There is allot to be said for pro panels and I think BMD is working to support more panels right now. Having a dedicated panel set designed for the system like Resolve or Baselight or Nucoda does speed things up and makes the room more "serious" I suppose.
