Going from B&W D3 to D4

Has anyone going that way also and how the comparison / experience?
The D4 is having far more load on the amplifier - so interested how the Devialet behaves.


Hi Markus,

After 5 years, I went from 800 D3 to 801 D4. Devialet 440 CI is capable to drive both very well at all power settings. The 801 D4 has more definition in the bass tones, is a bit warmer in mids, the high tones are more balanced. Positioning is also better. Less analytical. Overall more “musical” and less fatiguing. Pretty sure they also tuned the 803 D4 that way. Off topic, now looking to upgrade my Auralic Aries G1 with Hoerwege Lineair Power Supply to either Lumin U2 or Auralic Aries G2.2.
