Congrats V. So the Dev audition will be sooner
Let me know what you think. Am rediscovering my Toys with Dev170. By the way I have you to thank for since you mentioned them in your post |

Not at all Chaq, I didnt know Devialet exists a few moths ago, either. Did you buy a new one, or a demo unit? Do your toy towers sound better now? Isnt the sound too clinical (clean but not musical)? Would you install it on your wall ( I will, because of my kids and the display situated on the top). Any photos?
What is your source? I use mac mini with Audirvana 1.5... V. PS: BTW which country are you from? |

Those who have been at my place have probably noticed I have a some what different listening pose. I have never leaned back in my sofa even though this is way more comfortable. Instead I have always been leaning forward with elbows on my lap.
So today I brought out the XTZ room analyzer again to test the two positions. This is what the bass curve looks like. The yellow line is representing my "forward" listening position and the blue line leaning back. And this is the result when sweeping from 20 to 20 000 Hz. Green is the result from the normal listening position. This explains to me why I have always been sitting slightly forward. Always trust your ears |

Bigblue, could you do me a favor and confirm the width at the widest point at the top of your IIIs? The specs on the Sumiko site indicate 15.9" wide, but I saw them in Denver and don't remember thinking they were that wide at the time. I'm wondering of the specs quoted are for the outriggers or the actual speaker. Unfortunately my dealer doesn't have them in yet.
Thanks

Antonmb, the measurement (15,9) is including the outriggers. The actual speaker is 10 inches wide. Hope it helps.

Unfortunately not. Still waiting for them to arrive. But when they arrive they should be ready to go as they have been treated with Vidar.

I got a new Dev. They make the Toy sound clearer, more capable but ya maybe a little clinical. Don't know how it will be with the O3s. I would love to hang it on the wall but this way it will be an invitation for my kid to smack it and break it. Hehe. Am playing directly from my desktop through the ethernet. Am from Syria originally but have been living in Dubai for the past 25 years. Did you get the O3s yet? |
