RE: Last minute Summer Devialet Event at OAC with Mathieu Pernot! 12 July 2018 - thumb5 - 12-Jul-2018 Thanks, @Confused, for your comments. Let me clarify right away that it was a joint effort to get all the questions answered, but any mistakes or omissions are my own. (On that note, I can see immediately that I've consistently mis-spelled Mathieu's name - will go back and correct that.) To pick up on point 6: my notes are rather sparse except to say that USB was the way to go for highest resolution, but I also recall that Mathieu said it already supports 32-bit sample depth. RE: Last minute Summer Devialet Event at OAC with Mathieu Pernot! 12 July 2018 - GuillaumeB - 12-Jul-2018 Wow so much detail guys! Brilliant job. However! No pictures?! I am now digesting all this and will come back to you with additional comments.

Ok so this is what I reported too after Munich... nice to see that you agree. Guillaume RE: Last minute Summer Devialet Event at OAC with Mathieu Pernot! 12 July 2018 - GuillaumeB - 12-Jul-2018 Guys... was any discussion had re Qobuz with Core Infinity? I believe this was promised at some point. Or are we expecting Roon to integrate this? Not necessarily a bad thing, just asking! Guillaume RE: Last minute Summer Devialet Event at OAC with Mathieu Pernot! 12 July 2018 - frejo - 12-Jul-2018 Thank you for a great report. And when RAAT comes I probably too will get Roon.

Joachim demonstrated Qobuz support via Airplay, and I asked him about the possibility of direct support for Qobuz within the CI. He didn't exactly rule it out, but his reply was definitely more focused on the fact that Roon and Qobuz are now talking again, which (we assume) is likely to result in Qobuz being available via Roon. In any case, native support for Qobuz didn't feature in the list of top three or four priorities for the CI software.

Hi Guillaume When Enno came to do his talk at OAC he said that Qobuz would definately be incorporated into Roon at some stage (hopefully later this year) Nick RE: Last minute Summer Devialet Event at OAC with Mathieu Pernot! 12 July 2018 - Axel - 13-Jul-2018 @thumb5 Thanks for the great report, Ian. Going back to A5: you say that Devialet now recommend RCA-RCA connection between units. Did they say why? Are we to assume that sound quality will be better using this method of connection, rather than RCA-AES/EBU? I guess this will be good news for people who have had problems with which resistance cable to use and having to use 75/110 Ohm transformers, and problems with longer cables (as you pointed out), or perhaps this is the reason they now recommend RCA-RCA, and nothing to do with SQ?

I believe this was promised at some point. Or are we expecting Roon to integrate this? Not necessarily a bad thing, just asking! Good to see that RAAT is their highest priority. I currently stream Qobuz via AirPlay - which is easy to do. While the SQ is acceptable, it is not as good as Chromecast (which does not support gapless playback with Qobuz) and well below Roon Air. The other point is that AirPlay is limited to CD quality. I am glad that there is further confirmation that Roon and Qobuz are serious about getting together.

Now apart from loving my 440pro ci (always dream it will deliver 600watt per channel but forget it now), I love Devialet company itself because it got Mathieu and Joachim and all the staff in the company who try their best to improve their products, and they now can be more feel free to speak. |
