Thank you all very much for your responses. I am inspired to keep going!
I think it is certainly right that I need to make more fundamental changes to get a better idea of the Devialet sound.
I have looked at the threads referred to. The speaker cable used in the unsatisfactory system was Tellurium Q, as is mine, so I will borrow some Chord Signature and see how that goes.
I am going to move the whole system to a different room and see how that affects things. I have gone back to factory configurations, though I found that I preferred the sound quality when all inputs but the digital input for my cd were disabled. Maybe that in itself sharpened the sound too much.
I shall try some other speakers, if I can. I have already tried different equipment surfaces. I found the most natural sound on a plain wooden table which was light but firmly built. I will try some different mains cables, though I have Audioquest NRG 10 and they are the best I have come across so far.
Thanks again for taking an interest.
