Changing the setup - mmcl - 04-Nov-2014
Hi, I am new in this forum and I am considering replacing my analog setup for a Devialet 400. My current system is:
Pre Mark Levinson 326s
Power Mono Parasound Halo JC1
dCS Puccini U-clock
TT VPI Classic3 with Miyajima Kansui
Pre Phono Pass Labs XP-25
Pre Phono Audio Research PH7
TT Rega RP8 with Lyra Kleos
Speaker B&W 802 Diamond
I'm planning on staying only with the TT VPI.

Welcome!
Just go for it. You will not regret it...
My only recommendation is, keep the Puccini UClock until you compare it to direct USB input (or other digital inputs) of Devialet. Uclock is a gem.
Cheers

Hi, this is really my fear. How good is the USB input devialet once use my computer to play digital music.
Puccini and Uclock is actually pretty good, but I think it will not make much difference since all the line inputs are converted AD/DA on devialet and not have the full use of the Puccini.

Unfortunately, it will make much difference.
Just try.
USB is pretty good, by the way. Just make sure you don't miss anything.

what are you planning to replace the 802s with ?
RE: Changing the setup - mmcl - 06-Nov-2014
I live in Brazil and it´s difficult to try good speaker and good prices. We have taxes and fee a lot. I will stay with 802D and change all devices. Tomorrow I will listen a setup devialet and 802d in local dealer to decide.

then definitly ask the dealer to demonstrate SAM. The 802d profile is available. This makes a huge difference.
