Expert Pro sound quality

[Antoine]

Thanks Gui! This afternoon I've started listening again and I am really impressed and can only say: well done Devialet!!

I listened to Ane Brun's 'Rarities' album for example (CD rip) and it sounds really beautiful, better than I ever heard it before. It's a good recording/production and what I clearly noticed here for example is that there is much more information coming through, so transparency increased, especially in the upper mids and treble. It was really engaging and 'emotion provoking' and thus more real. I can easily imagine that any unwanted noise or distortion that became part of the signal earlier in the chain would also become more clear so I agree with your theory in full.

Besides the best source one can get, proper component isolation, clean AC power plus earthing and noise prevention (noise getting into the sensitive DAC) in general I think is mandatory, as always, to get the best out of ones system. (Room acoustics and listening position/loudspeaker placement is one big other part of course but that's less relevant now in this context of the new Pro)
