Devialet Chat

Thanks @Jean-Marie
Yes, that name is the one. We're going way back with this one but it is still interesting, and now current again with the issue found by @graemeharrison . Depending on how hard people drive their amps, the thermal conductivity pad adhesive could be a relatively common issue in the future. I don't think we've had this come up very often, but now we're all a bit more informed.

I think we have seen similar cases before:

(I'm also sure there were some earlier cases of D170/D200's with a similar issue? I cannot find them with a search though)

Looking back over @manoet’s posts, he did some incredible mods to his D. If you look from post #10 in this thread you can see how he modded his thermal pads: https://devialetchat.com/Thread-D200-Reassembly-thread
Might come in handy for anyone brave enough!

As a side note, I wonder what Devialet would have thought if Manoet returned his D200 for upgrade to 220 Pro CI spec?
