Devialet Chat

Hi co-forumers (if such a word exists)

Here is my current setup. Unfortunately, I live on a rented apartment and not much can be done in room treatment, but I am discussing with the owner how to deal with this.

My system consists of:
Amplifier: Devialet D200
Speakers: PMC Twenty 26
Source: HP i3 running Windows 10, MUSIChi software player + fidelizer ver.7 & Pioneer DV-LX50
Power Conditioner: Gigawatt PC-2 EVO
Rack: TAOS CS-3
Cables: All cabling is MusicalWire Belcanto series
Resonance control: Stillpoints UltraSS & UltraSS mini

ALL COMMENTS WELCOME!

Which country/city are you at? Do you find D200 has enough power to drive your PMC 20/26 well?

I live in Athens / Greece.

As for the drive, I believe that the D200 is on his limits. You can hear it on high volumes when playing classical music. The speakers have 84db sensitivity, you need every watt you can get. And as a load, it can be tricky at times.

Currently I'm on the savings for a companion aloe a second hand D200...

Below is a schematic of my system. I believe it to be mi final setup until i gather some the money required for upgrading my speakers. Please feel free to leave a comment in case you believe there is more room for improvement in relation to the secondary components

I use the 25/26 and the D200 is at its limit, too.  If I use HQPlayer to upsample to DSD62, I have to play some classical pieces at -10db.
