Auditioned three different Devore speakers (O/96, 0/93 & Super Nines), all driven by the sublime Luxman 509x. Very close to my ML No.383 in power so was my choice over the various other solid-state and tube amps BEK had in stock. Eric was in the midst of working with a contractor to finish up his second listening room but was most gracious in setting up all three speakers for a listen. The 0/96 & 0/93 were terrific while the Super Nines, no so much. Think it was one of those things where I listened in the order listed and the Super Nines paled in comparison to the other two. I could definitely see a pair of the 0/93s in my future. Possibly even a Luxman L-509x. A terrific integrated amp that deserves its rep from what I heard.
