I gave reasons why I am leaving.I have to absolutely agree with you, having myself dealt with then as a possible dealer, the lack of customer after sales and keeping their products up to date with latest software, why spend a fortune on their amps, moreover Devialet are focusing on their phantom sales and stuffing dealers at the same time selling them directly on their website.
I made and honest post about my audio journey, I made money on my 220 pro. You seem to not have understood my point.
Gryphon, MBL, Dan D'agstino, Focal, B&W, and many others became the products they are by sticking by their dealers and building a back bone based on quality and no compromise.
Devialet wants to say a 1000 pro is 50k when the some poor bastard buys 1 for 50k he is left shit out of luck because he bought an amp maybe worth 15k.
And good luck getting it because Devialet is so busy blowing smoke up their own ass with Phantoms, no one even knows the pros exist and anyone with 50k to spend on audio ain't giving it to Devialet.
Unless they just so happen to get approved at some high end audio dealer, the dealer don't care he is making his money the bank is paying him. What does he care if you pissed away a fortune on the privilege to buy from him.
Next month he won't even sell Devialet anymore, not with the way they churn distributor. So in his mind he will just trade you in later.
Devialet is a dead company. Great technology great Ideas, but the execution was their executioner.
Love them enjoy them, hold them tightly and never let them go. Either way everything I said is true.
in addition, Devialet telling dealers not to discount is against the fair competitions act under EU law.
i have never dealt with such a cowboy outfit as Devialet, the products are great when they work, but if you don’t have a decent after sales service, the product is crap.
luckily I got my amps trade, so I won’t lose any money, I intend to sell then relatively soon.
