Previously i was using Audio Research Ref 3/Ref110 combo
To me the devialet is much better - i had no hesitation to swapping out the ARC gear (which i really enjoyed) - you can read my mini review my local forum post#19 in http://www.avforums.co.za/index.php/topic,20230.15.html
The internal phono stage was more than good enough for me to sell a ARC Ref2 phono stage to fund the devialet D premier upgrade
Still my view is no matter what i or anybody else says on the forum - listen and decide for yourself
what i can say is that i listen to more music now than i have ever before
