No, I don't agree at all. I think it's borderline slanderous.Surprised you writing so much for this Amira guy.
He just want Devialet to pay him money,
Okay this is cheap AF but I can't help laughing anyway.Come on amira , you need to wake up ( it's the middle of the night for him ) and address these ' truth bombs ' .
Your putting bad things in internet, you want to make sushi Money and make french pay for raw fish!
You are acting immortal and need to say sorry to internet.
Okay this is cheap AF but I can't help laughing anyway.
Amir's grand plan has finally been revealed! It is called "high end audio blackmailing"!I like this idea of reverse payola. Maybe I could write a bad review about the Genelec 8351As to force them to send me a pair.
Depends. Here are some quick examples:What are the typical power levels of signals above 10kHz in real music?

Edit: It's 0 dBFS, but not sure about the particular answer to this question.Is this a power or voltage dB scale?
I've made a mistake, in fact today Devialet is funded by Bernard Arnaud, Xavier Niels, Jay Z and Foxconn.
I won't post again about Devialet.
Absolute output level doesn't matter, because it's all relative to 0dBFS. I'd be shocked if it were not signal amplitude, which is voltage.
Good stuff. Maybe after the repair it can be tested again.An update. Got a nice call from Devialet support. She said that she had spoken to engineering and they like me to send the unit back to them in France. Unfortunately they are currently shut down due to coronavirus. But once they are open, they will repair it. It was a terrible connection so couldn't converse more than the bare necessities. Happy that there is a course of action at least to get the unit back to health.
Perhaps since the first distortion component of 10kHz harmonic distortion is at 20kHz?I don't know why he says this test result was not used in the evaluation.

Not saying this is good, obviously, but distortion at low frequencies, like from any transformer coupled amplifier, obviously makes a big difference over the audio band and is audible whereas distortion above 10kHz is horrid looking but almost certainly inaudible - otherwise nobody would ever listen to LPs - this is typical of the distortion profile of pickup cartidges.
Not if the amp has an output filter. These don't have a filter.If the device is horridly non-linear at high frequencies then IMD products can surely fold back into the audible range.
It is sad the way even people with the measurements don't inform their readers what they all mean, the reviews all conclude these measure excellently, and in the print version of this review there is no data to allow the reader to form their own opinion. Your commentary on each measurement is very valuable, and with the forum nature if you were glossing over things you will get called on it.So now we have two other reviews confirming the issue with power delivery at high frequencies. And unfortunately more evidence of measurements in magazines brushing aside performance problems.
