Do we have any Wilson Sabrina owners here ? ....

Interesting question, as I've never used the Devialet as pre/DAC/streamer only... I don't know how much it its signature it'll impose on the sound... Now that's something that I'll play with!

But since it'll be temporary anyway, the 75SE is definitely a solid step towards that warmer sound that you want!


cheers,
alex

Just to complement the pre/dac/streamer fonction of the devialet, one owner replaced the very acclaimed ps audio dsd dac and a luxman pre with it and was happy of the results.

I have Sabrinas. I went from the D200 -> D220 Pro -> McIntosh driving them. The McIntosh amps reach lower and and are much fuller sounding, so much more enjoyable to listen to.

I don't think the Sabrinas need big power just the right power. You could always test the big McIntosh integrated if you want something a little more affordable in a single box.

Hi dr tone,
I m new to this forum with a new name,( not in purpose).
My devialet forum name is samsoum , and we exchanged some thoughts before, anyway i hope you are doing well.
Mackintosh style is definitely not my style even though i m sure they sound terrific.
I would love an all in one solution wich look descend and stylish like gryphon diablo300 but damm they are expensive.....
Let see..

Dr tone,
I agree that sab needs good power, but i also noticed they need some muscle .
Devialet is giving 200w to 8ohm and almost the double for 4 ohms and i thought this was more than enough till hearing dan d agostino nstream.
The later is really a hulk in terms of power( i forgot exactly the specs) , i felt the speakers handled much better, it was very obvious the grip the amp had on the speakers.
The sabs executed every bit or every single watt sended to them in perfect way.
Cheers

Are you going to look at it or listen to it? :D

I get more oohs and ahhs from the the blue meters and McIntosh label than I ever did from that very stylish Devialet.

I hope the 'oohs and ahh' are from the sound produced and not the light & label !

Unlike most I believe all Devialet amps are rated by the manufacturer ref 6 ohms only.
 
Gsophile, correct 200watt to 6 ohm.
Dr tone, yes the design is important for me to certain extend. Mcintosh , no it s not for me.( my wife neither by the way[emoji3][emoji3][emoji3][emoji3][emoji4][emoji4][emoji4])
