I had used Pass Labs Amplifiers with Wilson Audio Speakers for many years, before moving to a Devialet 200, 400 and now 440. I stream music directly from my Router to the 440 and control all functions of the music and amplifiers via smart-phone or tablet from any room in the House. The Devialet is a pleasure to use, with discreet asthetics, light-weight, cool-running, low-energy consumption and sounds excellent powering my Sasha 2 Speakers. I haven’t had any service issues with the 3 Devialet Amplifiers that I have owned during the past 4 years. Sound-wise they both have their strengths and weaknesses; the differences are a matter of personal preference, though the Devialet is by far the easier to live with, for reasons previously stated.
