I have never had a bit of kit die on me. Some held for over 25 year and still work when I plug them back in.
Same here. Never had any equipment die on me in the last 45 years of HiFi.
As for the longevity of Devialet gear: we'll have to wait and see!
Lucky people! I have had a pair of Arcam amps (in a bi-amp set up) that needed to go back for repair about four time between them. My current Yamaha surround amp packed up under guarantee, and now a couple of years later occasionally trips out, even at low volume. I am very pleased to say my Devialets have been faultless!
