Audiophile Audition has a review of Devialet 120. I've followed AA for years, reading music and movie reviews they post. In fact I have won two of their giveaways over some years, which by know means makes me a schill for their website, only a follower who finds the website useful. Note in review of 120, AA reviewer and editor express opinion that Devialet digital wasn't quite as good sounding as their Lyngdorf CD player. I sometimes miss the sound from my old Esoteric CD/SACD player, and being completely candid, my Esoteric player bested all the digital streamer/network players I've heard thus far, and I've heard (and owned) a few good ones to include Lumin A1. That said I like controlling files by UPNP app and freeing up space that my large physical media library took up.

From time to time, I find myself schizophrenic about my Devialet 200.  I thoroughly love the simplicity, resolution and appearance but sometimes miss that bit of warmth that I got from past audio equipment.  All told, however, I am never going back!

Want more warmth? Try putting your speakers closer to each other.
Want more warmth?

Put on a nice thick sweater... LOL Tongue

Well, theoretically the nice thick sweater would have to go on the Devialet! ;-)
