Nice. Another speaker I would look at should I switch out my Devialet Golds would be the Dynaudio Focus 30 or 50. Roon ready, Dirac Live…
… but I’m happy with the Devialet Golds. I’ve Dirac Live as part of my signal path via a separate box.

@supaDean
Heard the focus 30 much better than the ls60
Didnt have a chance to jear the focus 50 above my budget (:
But as a Devialet user i figured out that i love " emotional " music .
Devialet takes the low ends to pump your chest saturated highs .
You will not find it similar brands .
The a700 feels open and alive with low bass .but not Devialet style .

Didnt have a chance to play with master tunning .but il guess il try that in the next few days .
Enjoy...
RE: 3.5 years with Devialet phantom gold - eladeb - 06-Jul-2023
The room correction is a bit week i agree .
But it made a nice change in my listening area .
The app of the speakers looks like from the 80s (: .
The remote is super hot ! So premium with proximity alert .
If you getting close to it or move it it turns its light on .nice.

@eladeb
Thanks for the pictures. Looking great! Congratulations! Price wise, how does the A700 compare to the 108dB?

Note that I compared the Buchardt A500SE (with Purifi speaker cones) side by side with the Kii Three (without BXT). The Kii's were slightly more refined, but without a direct comparison, this difference would not have shown up.

@ragwo
Price wise ,
Since i had to release the speakers my self from custom the process was a little bit harder .
Unfortunately Buchartd dont deliver tomy county door to door .so we agreed to 20% off
And i took care of the custom release that was about 19% .17% tax and 2 handling UPS to my door .
In terms of sound difference ,
Im not an audiofil .
But I learned that speakers is like light it looks different in any position you are standing (:
Athome at the sound store same speakers sounds so different.
In my case to a700 give my room stadium sound like at low level with the Goldd i had to go higher volume (45+) to start enjoying them.
