Hi Guillaume, Any news on the cable Grant was referring to at the end of the demo?

Thanks

Graham

I don't have a huge amount of specific info unfortunately. We are basically going to launch a Venom range of power cables with NR filter tech. Performance and aesthetics will get close to the Deltas at roughly half the cost! What I don't have yet is specific UK pricing which is likely to be higher due to the cost of the UK CopperConn connector; initially the plan had been to use a more traditional MK-style plug but trying to get the AWG 10 and 12 conductors into these has been a bugger of a job. Then there are ongoing delays with the wire itself which has seen several revisions. It is hoped that these will start shipping in June but it's possible that we won't make this timeframe.

Thanks, sounds very interesting...

Now the usual Devialet owners question, will they fit with the rear cover plate in place.

Hello, 
I've a D200 with a Denali and have ordered a Alpha EF power cord for the Devialet, I first have received a big round IEC plug (similar of the Alpha NR I also own), so I asked to be send an other power cord Alpha EF with a flat plug to be able to close the Devialet. When I've received it keep for 1 week the two Alpha EF power cord. The only difference is the IEC plug, but they sound very different !!!

The sound stage with the flat plug is exceptionally large and wide
The sound with the round plug is so much richer in informations, details ... that I've kept the Alpha EF with the round plug
Perhaps Guillaume have tested this case ? to keep the best of the 2, the solution may be Sigma EF

But really guys, to obtain the best of Devialet, do not hesitate to invest in power cords.
