I was using a World Audio WD88 valve power amp and a home built very high spec Cathode follower pre amp. Tried the Dev 200 and was blown away by the clarity and @realness@ of the sound using my old speakers. Had a home trial with Magico S1's and had my mates who are all serious valve heads round for a listen.
One is now thinking of binning all his valve gear and getting a Devialet 120/200 and if you knew how little he likes to spend money you would know what a revelation that is. The others are also shocked at the sound and even though a little worried by my initial decision to swap to the Devialet are convinced that this was the correct decision.
Hope this helps in some way.
