Devialet get "dull"!?

[Mikeeo]

Mine was a lot duller! It really wasn't right. I tended to find it if I'd left it running for a day or two, perhaps running something in.

I stack my units on top of each other, temperature do not change if stacking or side by side
Running, both is around 39-42 celsius when stacked
I'm going to Munich, so i will ask

Hi stefanfreij,

Have your upgraded 250s always behaved like this or is this something you have only noticed recently?

BTW please post on the Munich thread, I think there are quite a few of us going now.

Yes, i think they always been like this

I will do!

Well as a fellow D800 and Sasha 2 owner I can tell you that this isn't normal. If anything it should improve with continuous usage. I regularly run my system for extended periods when running in new speakers or cables. To my ears there is definitely an improvement after 24 hours or so of continuous usage.

I think you should definitely raise a ticket on the Devialet site. As discussed above in this thread Rufus also had a similar problem which was seemingly resolved after a mains filter replacement.

Did you have this problem with the D Premier before you upgraded? What about running a single 250 to see if you can replicate this issue?

G, 

For what reason was the mains filter changed for Rufus? It is a Schurter LC filter I believe. What did Devialet comment about it?
It may just be pure imagination but at extended listening sessions I have a feeling that my system relaxes a bit too much but the most I have a feeling that I have to crank the volume to maintain the sound pressure, any one else experienced this? A third thing is that I sense my system gradually need more volume cranking the longer it stays on. Our system is on 24/7 (I do not run any sleep mode) and we use it for all TV, movie and of course music duties.
