Sopra 2 and devialet

Agreed! And I couldn't agree more with the cable - I tried some 6mm Van Damme cable in my Naim system last week with great effect!

Has anybody faired the Sopra 2's with the 1000Pro and felt these were a good match? i.e. neither component is limiting the other component? Obviously for the price difference there needs to be a reasonable sonic improvement that the Sopra's can express.
