Devialet - B&O on steroids?
I was chatting with my buddy FritzCurtis and he told me that his neighbor acquired a Devialet something or another. So, curiosity got the best of me. Holy Batman Robin. The stuff looks amazing!
Anybody out there have a Devialet piece or system? Last edited by Golucid; 03-07-2016 at 10:15 PM. |

David- Devialet is some interesting gear. They have Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy money behind them, so expect bigger things.
They are firmly in the good looking audio gear world- Lots of positive reviews. Still, Kate Upton gets a bunch of positive reviews, but not for her acting. The Burmester that Ivan posted is the real jewel of the Audio world with the electrical engineering acumen to back up those good looks. Pictures cannot capture how good they look in person. price? do not ask. |

Don't let these strange replies deter you from looking into Devialet. I started with a D-Premier and upgraded it to a D250. Before that I came from Ayre and Shindo.
I've thoroughly enjoyed the Devialet and have no desire to look elsewhere. I would highly recommend you audition if you have the chance.

Thank for sharing your audio story, can you relate to why coming from Ayre and Shindo means that someone should go for Devialet? I think my favorite feature is the Speaker Active Matching or SAM, Devialet SAM Do you use SAM? |

just ordered a Devialet 200, can't wait for it to come in. It will be partnered with Raidho X1 mini monitors and two JL Audio 110 Fathoms and some ansuz cabling and power distributor.

Since you come from Shindo, could you share your impressions on the differences between that and the Devialet? Shindo has, in my book, "deliciousness" in spades -- and and ability to sound "forgiving" without sounding "dull" with harsher records. What's your experience with the Devialet wrt to less than ideal recordings? Thanks, Alberto |
