At the BelCanto homepage there is only dealers in the US does not BelCanto sell outside the States?
At 25k dollar the new BelCanto better be good and of course it has all of the new things and that puts the Devialet a bit outdated but if Devialet build a completely new design today I think they would incorperate lots of these new features.....or would they?
Last we saw something like this was Micromega that has lots of inputs and functions but at a lower price than Devialet, havent sen much of those anyone listened to them?

I'm in Australia and there are Bel Canto dealers here.
$25k is not cheap, but 2 Dev200's in the US are approx $20k and it would be the D400 that you would compare to the Bel Canto. For the extra $5k it looks like the Bel Canto is a component that befits 2016 whereas the Devialet is starting to be a little dated in areas... Maybe that will change with a hardware upgrade at Munich?

Wait till you see the price of the Bel Canto in UK/Europe before you judge the value. If it's like everything else from the USA it will be £25,000 in UK so up against D800 or Original D'Atelier.

Re pricing, i'm most likely wrong on the D400 pricing. Just did a quick scan and found somewhere selling them for approx $9500 per D200.
My components are Cullen/W4S modified Sonos connect->D200->Perigee Fk1 speakers as well as Gauder Akustik Cassiano MkII's. Also have various TT's.

Even if it has to be compared to the D800 on price, still want to know how this Bel Canto shapes up!

I've had Bel Canto components before and they have always provided great products for the cost. With these new amps they seem to have the upped the ante AND they have always been a great company to deal with.
I am definitely interested.
