New Devialet not sounding quiet right (newbie question)

[Kunter]

Mine was fine straight out of the box. Having said that, I think it did improve over time, but we are talking very small margins here.

Anyway, you say "the music doesn't sound ok"? What exactly are your issues? If you can provide a little detail, I am sure that there are many on here that will be more than happy to help.

The sound is a touch metallic. The files used to test are high quality lossles RIP's.
I'll let it play for a couple of days. In the worst case I'll do a test at the dealer.

Welcome

Try changing polarity of the power cable (if you are in Europe) just plug to the wall the other way around.
What is the amp sitting on? If glass or similar hard surface, try something soft under it. The foam in the original package is a very good start. It looks horrible like that but will give you an idea if there is a problem.
Also, for the speaker and power cables, devialet shows any weakness heavily. Even if you were happy with your cables before, your previous gear might have been hiding weaknesses.

My first premier was good from start, the second one took ages to come to life. The 240 (I sold one premier and bougt one 240 new) and the upgraded one were both great out of the box.

They are both sitting on dedicated shelves of a Pagode Master Reference stand. And some serious cash went to proper cabling.

Cheers.
