Devialet Chat

Congratulations on your new speakers. I've heard them a couple of times (with Devialet) and loved them. I'm sure they'll give pleasure for many years.

I am sure of that, thank you!

Well i have been running in the SF's for 24x7 now since more then a week using the brown noise generator (which sounds exactly like the white noise problem of Air, coincidence?) when i am working and sleeping.
After today i will sit and listen what is has done to the sound!

Are there people out there who have already experimented with other components and cables around their Devialet and SF Olympica's and found good or even sublime matches there?

Hi Bartype,

How are the Olympicas coming along?
 
I would say the Aurender is very worthwhile, providing delicate/rich sound but with noticeable slam and attack. And the Totaldac USB cable does help a bit and improves the sound making it more organic and natural.

Thank you for your reply. The SF's sounds fantastic! I have to say, in comparison with my previous speakers the SF's reacts relatively much on small replacements of even a few centimeters. I am still looking for the best position, where standing waves which still occurs in some music (mainly ambient), is brought back to an acceptable amount. I'll probably try some bass traps for this to see if these do really something.
Apart from the ambient, most music sounds great and classic even magnificent!

Considering the Aurender, it seems Devialet is coming whit their own build in option for a media player. For now i think i'll wait to see (and propably hear) if it's something to consider...

Nice thread!. Has anyone compared the Olympica II's and II's ?. It's not a huge difference in price, and was wondering if the bass extension and 'weight' is a big step up in the III's ?
