Here's a link to an enjoyable article from The New Yorker on audiophilia, our never-ending quest, as the author puts it.  Devialet is mentioned but the author only heard the Phantom.  He also covers MQA, vinyl and puts a bit of audio history in there.  Fun read. Big Grin

Cheers, Flashman

And apparently, he only heard the Phantoms only in a glass box (for sure not an environment to audition Hifi). As such his statements with respect to the Gold Phantoms are sort of uninformed and incompetent.

Isn't that how Devialet usually demo them? I agree with you by the way.
