New amp being touted as among the best ever......

....possibly hyperbole but Hi-Fi News in the UK raving about the Diavlet D-Premier amplifer.

Apparently it has patented a new hybrid of Class A and Class D technology. It sounds very interesting, looks unique and would appear to be a must hear for those who are interested in high quality servers where apparently it excels-although I'd be interested to hear what it can do with any source.

Pretty expensive I believe at £12000 or approx $18000.

It looks very interesting and it's not every review you read where you really want to hear the thing.....

Here's their website, quite a lot of info on there if you browse about.

Hi Everybody.
I am just coming back from CES and spent a serious amount of time listening to the Devialet on Focal Scala Utopias as well as the a pair of Revel Salon2's. I can report back that all of the reviews and feedback are spot on. This is a game changer and presents amazing utility along with world class performance. Additionally , it can be custom configured to many settings.
Needless to say, we are going to be displaying the D-Premiere from Devialet starting next week in our Tustin, California showroom. Feel free to drop by or call for a demonstration.

Any product that can compete and better in some areas (accrding to hifinews magazine) the incredible $180,000 Behold system, will get my attention everyday of the week. I wish I could afford one right now, and if I could, I would without doubt try it out. And I would not care if it looked like my Aunt Lizzy's "muscle massager". It is the sound, and the sound only that matters. I do not stare at my audio equipement in lustfull manner. That is what I have a GF for.

I wonder how the new NAD digital integrated amp compares at $6000?

That is getting some good press as well.

That's a piece I gotta hear!

Welcome to the future folks!
