Speakers for Devialet


Looking for assistance to match my Devialet 440 for speakers to listen primarily rock and instrumental music. Current speakers are audio physics. Thank you

Google "Devialet 440" and you will see a plethora of suggested choices, including inter alia, FOCAL Supras

We all understand that "system" synergy is the yellow brick road to OZ. So what is it that leaves you wanting? Ignoring any reference to cables for the moment,

(1) Your Audio Physics are no slouches...( model unspecified) but I am aware of many of the models in their stable.

(2) There is a distinct wild card issue first .... you are silent on your source. Is it up to par with the amp? We ll know the time-honoured axiom: " Garbage in, garbage out". Is it a case that your amp is just revealing the inherent weaknesses and warts in your source? This factor is a BIG one that I would assess FIRST before swapping in new speakers, that are at the "back-end" of the chain and won’t compensate for material issues up-front other than expose them more graphically.

FWIW, JMR (Jean-Marie Reynaud) has a fine stable of French speakers as contenders rather than pretenders with the amp., Amherst Audio is both a dealer and distributor that carries them and JMRs ((IMO) are well worth an audition before you pull any trigger (if at all) on new speakers to mate up with the Devialet.

Thx akg.
1. I am using Avanti III. They are about 10 years (was earlier driving them with Bryston).
2. I am using Audio-aero Prima CD player. Have also attached my macbook through which I play my music on iTunes (high quality on hard disk). Sometimes use Spotify premium where music quality really drops. Looking at buying Aurender X100 as the media player.
3. Need to change cables as well and wondering what to upgrade to.

many thanks for your prompt assistance - I am new to this forum.

I'd suggest upgrading your cables - Analysis Plus are a great match with Devialet as are Wireworld.
If you like the Audio Physics try their new models.  Avantera for example.  Beyond that I'd suggest the Focal range, Sopra or Utopia or Magico's.
