I have the A1. The acoustic surface might exceed the very low standard set by other sets, but it is still very poor acoustically. Quite distorted and compares poorly to even fairly cheap box speakers, even though it does go loud, has a good quantity of bass and a fairly convincing surround effect.
And Phantoms will still have lag with shows (for some inexplicable reason Sony decided to omit any offset controls on their flagship TV, or much of anything in fact), it might not be game over critical but at least for me 150-200ms is well into what's bothersome, and at the price, completely unacceptable. The proper thing for people in our position to do is to not support Devialet until they can be bothered to fix their product. Even while the sound itself is sublime. This isn't the future, this is inadequate technical specification crippling a product.
