using the devialet 240. and a continuum criterion/copperhead/transfiguration proteus. probably going for devialet #2 for monoblocks (which replaced berning quadrature z's and before that, vitus) - devialet's my favorite to date, aside from maybe ypsilon, soulution.

yeah. exactly. i love my d3's long time until i have a friend over, go a few degrees further on the volume, and they poop out. or when i need to get my rock on myself (which is often). i had some loiminchay kandinsky's before. (TAD compression driver married to 12 inch). the loiminchay's were great from 700hz and up where the horn lived. the 12 incher obscured all the low level articulation i get from the d3. my thinking is the lansche has the tweeter that beats the raidho. dual 4" audio-technology drivers, 4 9 inch woofers, bigger cabinet. like a d3 on steroids. when i heard it, with full ypsilon rig, it was like hearing G_D

Ha! Too funny, David have you listened to the new 5 & 7 series Soulution, home run on that power supply!

i only heard the integrated at CES with magico. it always sounds awesome. too damn expensive though.... devialet maybe not same league but close at a fraction of the price.
Big +1. I reviewed the 170 and I still think about it today. If my VAC amps sell, a 240 in my Magico S5 is getting serious consideration. I think the DAC and Phonostage in the Devialet are home runs.

If I were looking at the No. 7, I would probably be comparing it to the Raidho C4.1.
Or the new D5.

David - you're zeroing in on something here. Try to schedule a different demo - even if a flight or two is required. Hear them in another setting, with different gear in a different room. Better yet, if possible, an in home demo. We have seen some dealers here charge 1% of the purchase price to arrange an in home demo. Just a thought....
The Lansche might be a real sleeper, certainly the few reviews published are excellent.

Lansche are good speakers, the plasma tweeter is in particular excellent, have you read the Stereophile review ?

Well, it's always better if the comparisons are realistic.
Lansche is almost 6' tall, weighs 286 lbs and has a quoted range of 25 Hz - 150 kHz.
D3 is a little over 4' tall, weighs 143 lbs and has a quoted range of 30 Hz - 50 KHz.

I agree that size is something to take in consideration but to me, money is the best for comparisons. My question is usually how good of sound can I get for a price range. There are almost always trade-offs and thats where the size comes into play.
Obviously price wise the Lansche is between the D3s and C4.1s.

You move fast, I see your D3s are already on Audiogon. Devialet, Nordost, and Radiho. It looks like we bought our Devialet's from the same dealer in SF. Marlen and Antonio were big on the Devialet/Nordost/Raidho setup, but ultimately I went with the 170 and Magicos and Audience cables from another dealer.
I have a question about the music streaming business if you don't mind. Given your appreciation for hifi, did you push for lossless music streaming? If so what prevents Mog/Spotifiy/etc from offering it? Is it purely a business decision or are the copyright holders against lossless streaming.
I really enjoyed Mog, and with the Devialet air setup I dreamed of streaming lossless from Mog to the Devialet. I've followed Pono and Qobuz a bit and it sounds like some form of lossless streaming will be available in the US at some point.

labels won't allow lossless at $10/month. they want much more. see that as a deterrent to cd sales. totally ridiculous. it would be probably 30 bucks are more a month. too niche to build a service around. stupidity all around!!!
