It's hard to know the answer. Two things come to mind
1) It depends on how "nasty" the speaker load is. In general, electrostats are hard to drive because their impedance can drop very low (sub 2 ohms in some cases)
2) It depends on how well Devialets perform when driving low impedance loads. There is no information on this provided by Devialet themselves. I haven't seen any third party measurements either (probably because I've not looked very hard)
