Devialet and bluray movies

[Mikeeo]

Hi,

I only use 2 CH for movies ie the same set up as for music. I was blown away with the first movies how good it sounded with all the effects specially in the lower freq regions (that was with my 200). I see no need in going surround for movies but on the other hand the system is mainly used for 2 CH music.
Now with 400 set up it is even better in terms in resolution and dynamics which really gives the movies a much higher enjoyment factor.

Hi again,

By the way, I connect my blue ray player (Oppo 103D) digital Dolby 2 CH output to one of the digital in on the Devialet. Works superb!

I don't care for surrounding either. When I'm in the cinema, I miss my 2 CH THULE PA350B/PR350BV/B&W XT4 at home. You should never have mentioned all the good things about 400 What speakers do you have, since you are running 400? I don't know if I can hear the difference between 200 and 400 with B&W 804 or 805 Diamond, when the speakers are B&W smallest diamond series. One of these two speakers are going to replace my B&W XT4 next year.

Have you tried to connect your bluray player analog output to the Devialet to take advance of Oppo's Dac and get 2 CH 24bit Dolby HD/DTS-HD master instead of 16bit Dolby Digital/DTS, when using the digital output?

Kenzo,

Thanks for the last input, I will try that for sure!
About difference between D200 and D400, he he, the least important factor is the power increase (if you do not have extreme tricky loudspeakers) the big factors are, bigger sound scape, more details from your records, lightning fast dynamics (big factor from going D400) etc etc ie like pulling a blanket off your speakers

Kenzo, forgot the speakers!

At the moment I am running Monitor Audio PL100 but looking at preliminary replacing these with Sonus Faber Amati Futura, but will audition some more before deciding.
