I'm French and you should not consider French speakers for Devialet because it's french. Focal or Triangle are a joke on High-end speakers (way too expensive for the result). Jean marie Reynaud are colorful. Cabasse created real good High-end speakers but too expensive anyway.
After the audition of several brands, i fell in love with Usher Audio speakers. You should consider the CP-777 if you're looking for a "compact" speaker. The soundstage is huge and sharp, the bass are deep (no subwoofer needed), the medium is liquid and real and the highs are detailed and smooth (probably the best tweeter on earth!). The Appolito system is probably the most practical to get a perfect phase and Doctor D'appolito himself is part of the conception of all Usher's speakers...
Trusting real and experienced engineers like D'appolito is a guarantee in our messy Hifi passion...
