Nice combo. The Dyn's love power so if you ever feel like an upgrade, the more power you give them, the better they will sound. I went from 200 to 900Watt (Available. I don't think I've ever pushed that through to my speakers) on my C1's and they really sing, especially at lower volumes.

Not sure it's the most preferred combination - but it's been a major step up from anything I've previously had. What I need to figure out is that the Martin Logans have an impedance drop (1-2ohms) while it's nominally 4 ohms - and whether the devialet can properly drive that. Any other folks here that have speakers that have bad impedance behaviour?

Don’t think you will have a problem Zambie. Select your model in SAM and you are all set.

Devialet 220 Pro CI and B&W 804 D3s.

I had auditioned a number of systems in the max. $20,000 budget range for my foray into high fidelity. At some point high SQ becomes consistent with lossless sources and you start dealing with highly subjective nuances and details for which your further hardware choices beyond amp and speakers can have an influence. The number of hardware combinations and permutations and consequent variations on results becomes near infinite, especially if you add DSP settings in Roon. But we're all on this site because we are tinkerers!

I was pleased to see later that Devialet's reference demo combination for the 220 Pro is with the 804 D3s as presented in their NY/SoHo and Rue Réaumur stores. Of course, this is also a marketing choice. I was considering the 804 D2s, the entry level to the turbine head in the Diamond series, but that would then be followed by the 440CI, etc., etc. These are levels too far down the rabbit hole with such diminishing marginal increases in SQ, at least for me. I should instead start focusing on room acoustics for affordable higher-impact improvements.

Been on the upgrade mood many times but they have been with me since the early Dev Premier period,and was one of the first speakers to be SAMed
Probably will stay some more years
