One observation that I would add, call it from many years of experience with Naim systems. Naim sound is coloured, it is really coloured. Of course, it is coloured in a way that many, many people like, in the 'ear of the beholder' so to speak. They go through umpteen iterations of tweaking DSP's etc in each of their boxes until it hits their 'house' sound. So it is with all the renowned box makers.
To my mind Devialet's produce a 'less-coloured' sound, in my ear, something that is more accurate and just as pleasing, but you do have to make sure that what is feeding the Dev is top-notch. Fortunately, top-notch feeds are getting more common, but one still has to do a bit of legwork to ensure you are feeding the Dev with the best possible signal. And then it will sing for you .........
