1000 Pro Write up by Darko

(29-Jul-2016, 08:13)Confused Wrote: He says that the 1000 Pro is called a 1000  because it is 1000 watts, initial demo music sounds like Biosphere's Novelty waves.  Techno!  How cool is that.  Mumbles something about AHD and upgrades then plays The Cure's 'Fascination Street', I think someone at Devialet has ripped off my record collection!  Ah!  This is interesting, he confirms upgraded amps will have a new 5 year warrantee.  He then plays some Ben Salter.  He then goes on about getting 'love letters' from D-Premier owners after their D240 upgrade.  What?????  (confused pauses video to go and be sick)  He says the Pro sounds better.  Now a short blast of Prince.  Lots of stuff about PSU's.  Now some Talking Heads!  More PSU mumbles followed by Aphex Twin's Cock/Ver10.  (I'm actually enjoying the music here, but the clips are way to short)  Lots of stuff about distortion, S/N ratio's and power, then a blast of Bjork, some talk of power, more Bjork.  Question:  Why do you cheat and rate power at 6 ohms?  Answer, most speakers have low ohms, or some such waffle.  More Biosphere.  Talk of staff increases, recruitment  Software team doubled.  Mumbels about Phantoms.  Signs off with Bowie's Lazarus.  

Why is it when I go to hifi shows the music is always utterly dreadful stuff I would never listen to in 90% of the rooms, but the music on the video was most excellent.  I did hear those big PMC's bigger bothers once also, very good!

Thanks Confused. On your question about music; I think it's Darko's personal choice.
