Datzeel vs Asr Emitter exclusive vs Devialet


Has anyone listened to any of these Amps and to whitch may be better to drive demanding speakers such as Yamaha Ns 1000 ?
I know this is potencially a strange combination however I would like to pursue my project getting my Yamahas to sing.
I would apprecite if someone could point me in the right direction.

The Deviilet is now available in the USA, before now there was no US distributor.

I think the ASR is very good, and somewhat more reasonable priced than the Dart stuff which is very expensive for what you are getting.

I am going to get a demo of the Devialet, according to Six Moons and everyone who has seen the design and heard it, the Devialet is a breakthrough product, using a radically different design concept more like a reinventing of the Quad amplifiers of the sixties with modern digital technology.

The proof will be in the listening. Where do you live if you are in my area, NJ I would invite you over if I get a demo.

You can't list the Devialet with either of them.

The Devialet is designed to be used with a digital signal directly to gain its full benefit of their technology.

The ASR and Dartzeel both require a digital source and a set of interconnects.

So when you think of the Devialet it is really a complete system minus the speakers.

So if you are thinking of comparing all of these pieces you need to consider the cost and complexity of the additional front end components.

Soon Devialet will allow for complete streaming into their amp, I haven't heard all three, I have heard the ASR and the Dartzeel, I am waiting myself to hear the Devialet.
