Good on you mate. Keep enjoying the music.

BTW, when a mate of mine had his first kid, he got it used to music straight away so when the kid was sleeping he didn't have to be quiet. Free tip Smile

Thank you sir. Will keep enjoying those sweet tunes. Just purchased Roon so rediscovering my music collection Smile

Will try the latter tip, sadly (or thankfully) the kids love the tunes so damn much they run into the room to dance anytime they hear them! That includes after bedtime!

Incidentally Devialet offered to upgrade my 120 to one of the new 200 range for £2900...so tempted...I think this system is going to cost me a lot to keep!

I feel you. And selling one of your kids is still illegal in the UK I presume?  Tongue

When my missus was pregnant, I used to clamp my headphones to her bump and play soft ambient music over them. You could say that my son was conditioned to music in the womb! After he was born, if he used to get het up, I'd play the same music and he'd calm down and sleep.

Dogbait - where are the marks at the rear? On the casework?
Have you owned from new?

Add another £3000 and you have a 220pro after upgrade! Can't be bad.

Right at the back on the slide out plate - literally on the rear edge - you can't see them from the top. They are tiny and hard to spot much less take a pic of. I purchased the unit here on this very forum actually. Have original receipt and amp registration in my name.

Price dropped on the 120 to £2100. Last chance before it ends up on fleabay!
