Well I had a chance to listen to this integrated amp powering a set of wilson speakers and I was so amazed with the sound from this little amp I forgot to ask or look for the name of the speaker all I know it was wilson, I've attached a picture of the speaker.
Small compact amp nice remote, great reviews.
Cheers, Roger

That's a Wilson Sasha2, it is their most popular Wilson speaker. A very good performer. I have heard great things about devialet.... I wonder if it was SAM activated for this speaker.

I listened to the 1028 focal electras powered by the devialet, and sounded fantastic! Just this slim slab of metal, supposed to be powered by a class A/D amp? Also has a dac on board as well as a media server. They are very pricey though.2 channel:

You're correct Ken they are in Vancouver, I was down visiting my oldest girl and was driving around and spotted the store so of course had to pop in,they have some nice equipment.
Mike the Devialet is quite pricey $9500 Cnd.

Devialet is supposed to be just fantastic... my friend was tryign to sell me his 400 pair... but the cost is just astronomical at 14K for a pair of extremely small amps... I just can't fathom spending that much on something that doesn't way 100 pounds.
Maybe I'm just stupid.Magico M2, JL113v2x2, EMM, ARC Ref 10 Line, ARC Ref 10 Phono, VPIx2, Lyra Etna, Airtight Opus1, Boulder, AQ Wel&Wild, SRA Scuttle Rack, BlueSound+LPS, Thorens 124DD+124SPU, Sennheiser, Metaxas R2R -

They are expensive, I don't know that much about them other then the great reviews I read and the 15 minutes I spend listening to them push a pair of $45,000 speakers....
And maybe if they were pushing a $3000 set of speakers it wouldn't have such a wow factor anyway but it probably would.

I listened to the devialet on some focal arias. As well as some tannoys (can't remember the model). Both in the 3000$ range, and sounded fantastic as well. Also had some devialet mono blocks on the 1038 electras. Wow... Just wow...2 channel:
