Nothing like a Devialet at all, in either architecture or functionality.
Not to say it may not be a good class-D amp with conventional preamp and DAC in the same box, so in that respect it is just as much an alternative to a Devialet as any other integrated amp might be, but functionally absolutely nothing like it.
