Mathieu said that "the Devialet is true/transparent to the source" i.e. if you improve the source you improve the SQ. When they demoed the EUR160K system with a Macbook and a 5m USB cable (for printers) I asked why they don't improve the source. His answer was that "let's say that this is the minimum performance of the system".

That's because there is nothing wrong with the source.

Nothing wrong with a Macbook. I have a Macbook Pro myself. A perfect laptop computer. 

I used it for a month straight with USB when my SOtM SMS-200 ultra was sent back to Korea for an upgrade. It sounded so crap that I didn't allow any of my audiophile friends come around for a month. 

Somebody who has not heard the Devialet with a proper source has no idea what it's capable of.
