To be honest, I love my 1000 Pro, I am absolutely delighted with the thing. I know I can sound a bit evangelical about Devialet sometimes, so I'll accept the ribbing in good grace, I could see it coming I think!

There is a point here though, before buying my first Devialet I went to a huge amount of time and effort comparing different amp / DAC combinations with my speakers of choice, before eventually coming to the conclusion that the Devialet was the one for me. I do know of others who think Devialet's are overpriced and sound mediocre at best. OK, fair enough, it is certainly true that all amps /DAC /integrated combinations sound different to degrees and indeed work better with particular speakers, there is no 'best', but there is maybe a best for you. So the key thing is to find something that works in your system and suits your own ears / taste / music. For me, I am more than satisfied that Devialet does it for me, and I know others will find alternatives they prefer. The thing is that I am 100% happy with the way the Devialet performs, and I am sure I'll be happy with my 1000 Pro for many years. (assuming there isn't another upgrade scheme in a couple of years
