Devialet in Japan?

[Hifi_swlon]

Heard from the grapevine that Devialet offended the big distributor in Japan and now no one else dares to take up the distributorship.

A few dealers that I spoke to in and around London that dropped the brand, basically said Devialet became impossible to stock around the time of the Phantom launch. Allegedly they went 'a bit Apple' and if you weren't prepared to devote a large portion of your store to Phantom, as well as agree sales targets, then you couldn't do experts either. No idea how much truth there was to it - but they were definitely quite pi**ed off with Devialet.
