Speakers for Devialet

Don't get sucked into all the luddites front end arguments - one of the many distinct advantages of the Devialet is it's incredible DAC and built in streaming via Ethernet or wifi. With Devialet Air 3,04 (just released) running on your MacBook you can play Tidal with MQA and 16/44 directly or better still through ROON and control it all remotely via an iPhone or iPad. Going over wifi eliminates any galvanic noise from connecting wires and sounds better than Ethernet, USB or AES too.  Better still you can have your MacBook in another room and on an entirely separate leg of power. Getting a dedicated 20amp supply to your 440 will help a lot.  Feel free to reach out if you want any specific Devialet setup help as it can get a bit technical! Equally, you can use you MacBook to rip/copy your CD's to an external hard drive and have access to those through ROON.
A good power cable works wonder with Devialet. Try Triode Wire Labs, Lessloss, Wireworld or Analysis Plus. All reasonable $ and great matches. Same companies for speaker cables.
if you do upgrade your speakers after trying all that you'll likely find the cables just fine but may want to revisit your cable options. Buying used cables is a good option.
Good luck.

Thanks akg and leeagc. I had recently upgraded from Devialet 200 to the 440. The built in streaming function has still not been delivered in Singapore and is expected in Q3. I have a dedicated 20 amp power supply. Heard Kharma Excquisite LE and was blown away. The dealer was recommending DB7 as a good match. I had earlier looked at Raidho D2.1 as well as Focal Sopra No 2 and SF Amati. Very confused about the speakers but guess will work at source first and check my power cable (am traveling currently) and look at Roon. Was thinking of buying Aurender X 100 to attach to my devialet as the media player. Will that work with Roon? Many thanks for your kind assistance

What is your budget for new speakers? 

Looking at around $20-25k. Have looked at Raidho D2.1 (demo piece) though still pricey. Have been recommended Kharma DB7 (impressed with Kharma Galileo but that is again very very pricey) and SF Amati.

agree with A KG...... while cables are important, they are the seasoning for a quality prepared dish. Fix the system first.

Re: Spotify, Pandora, etc...  great for background music, but not for serious listening.
