the new D220 received!

[Theatermax]

Ok, I did it.  Couldn't stand waiting and dreaded the thought of sending my 200 off for upgrade without actually hearing a 220 Pro....

So I went and bought a 220 Pro!   Found an awesome dealer here in the US (Craig Shumer/Theatermax) that actually has a couple in stock.   So I bought one 3 days ago and FedEx just delivered it.  Yep, already hooked up and playing as I type.   Yep, sounds great right out of the box.  Nope, haven't got a clue to share (yet) about SQ of the 220 Pro vs the 200.  But I will.

I won't sell my 200 until after I'm sure the SQ improvement is worth the price difference.    I suspect it won't take long, but I'll give the 220 Pro a couple hundred hours to breakin before I start any real critical listening or comparison.

P.S.   If you're looking to buy a Pro or to upgrade yours, particularly if you're in the US, you might want to touch base with Craig at Theatermax (disclosure: no vested interest beyond just being a very happy customer).  Very knowledge Devialet dealer with a great understanding of what Devialet is up to (imagine that ;-).   You can find him by googling or just PM me for contact info if needed.


MD , Thank you so much for the kind words.. I am very happy to have helped you and so glad your enjoying the 220 so far. Once broken in I have a strange feeling you will be upgrading your other 200 or just buying another 220 .. 

I have my new Set of KEF Blade 2 on the way down to us and hope in the next 7-10 days to have my 440 system setup with my Blade 2's..I will follow up with pics of course.

So far the customers running 220's are noticing some very exciting sonic improvements. It's still early and they haven't shipped that many 220's yet but soon enough lots of people will have them and hopefully report back what I am seeing so far.

Thanks
