It's Devialet, it's got acronyms, and there's a diagram with coloured wiggly sound lines. What more's to know? Tongue

Well,

I think ADH will play a great part. In my early days of owning a D120, I was having entry level two ways bookshelves from Focal, basically the grand father of the Chorus 706.

Just changing from my Atoll IN80SE to the D120 (which basically was just having the same power) was an enormous step up, and the bass extension was much better (SAM was not even existing).

So if you add SAM to ADH, which I suspect will be the case for that box, I think you can easily outperform any other box.

I cannot tell for ICM because I'm not using my Devialet with TV, but I would suspect this can also be a unique feature compared to other boxes.

My two cents,


Jean-Marie

Like it or loathe it, you might find this an interesting read. Or at least take a glance at the Prototype pictures. Interesting!

So Devialet innovatively came up with a flat rectangular black box design!

Pretty sure you will find it matches the SkyQ box quite well, so probably exactly what was required/requested. I pink one with blue spots and shaped like a set of Nautilus speakers would probably be a little out of place in most people's homes.

Well I like the Nautilus design. A wider choice of colours would seal it for me! ? Big Grin
