Any French speakers care to translate the bullet points?

Use google chrome.It will offer to translate it automatically

The difference between 200 and 220 is considerable and greater than that between 800 and O d'A...

Reading the review one basically comes away thinking this is a huge upgrade. An upgrade that gives you most of the performance of the O d'A at least... in fact he wonders how the 220 would compare to the O d'A!!

Of course Jalucine was running the 220 with very sensitive speakers so the differences might not be quite so dramatic with speakers with more demanding loads.

Well, as Oscar Wilde said, ' I can resist anything except temptation'. I'm in.

Some of the descriptions here remind me of when I listened to the 1000 Pro. In particular 'nuances et détails sans la moindre agressivité'. I thought the 1000 Pro had details in abundance without that 'hifi' hard edge, in other words everything simply sounded very real. A lot of this must be the new ADH I'm sure. So it's back to my theory that with less demanding speakers a 220 Pro could outperform a D400. (Or 800 even?????) someone needs to try this!

Thanks! I do use Google translate but just find myself giggling at the translations rather than concentrating on the article. It's much better than my French though.

So "Workshop Original" - is that the literal translation of OdA, or the correct one?

So I should sell my Od'A to finance the upgrade of my 200?
