I have not heard the Dartzeel integrated but I have heard the power amp. It does not have the clarity of the Devialet but is a lovely sounding amp. IMO more coloured than the Devialet in a likeable way, maybe because of the high (for SS) output impedance or relatively high but euphonic distortion.
I could live with the Dartzeel happily enough but prefer the transparency of the Devialet. The clarity without harshness and the clean bass are hard to forget once experienced.
I would recommend doing the comparison for yourself though since tastes differ.
