For sale: Devialet Expert 200 in perfect condition. Recently purchased with fully transferable warranty.
MSRP $9495. Will sell for $4750 (plus shipping and paypal fees).
If you're looking at Devialet, you know just how awesome this integrated amp is. Exceptional reviews abound... here's one from Robert Harley @ The Absolute Sound:
http://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/devialet-200400-integrated-amplifierstreaming-dac/This is a great path to replace amp, preamp, DAC, phono pre, streamer and an abundance of cables & clutter with a single component that will likely sound far better and save you $$ (it certainly did for me).
For some, one big incentive to buy this now is that Devialet is offering, through year end, a "recent buyer" 35% discount to upgrade the 200 to the new 220 Pro. The discounted upgrade is fully transferable. So here's a way to get essentially a brand new 220 Pro for a substantial discount off MSRP. In addition, for those that upgrade before year-end, Devialet will provide the new streaming board (customer installable) FREE of charge once the board is released early next year. Devialet says this board alone will carry an $1800 price tag next year.
Full disclosure: I'm selling this because I went ahead and bought a 220 Pro so that I'd have the opportunity to compare them. As much as I love the 200, the 220 Pro is definitely staying. But, please, do me a favor, buy this from me now. If I can't sell by mid December, I will upgrade it to a 220 Pro. I'll tell my wife that I'll then sell it, but you and I know that won't happen. I'll "try" partnering it with my 220 Pro to form a 440 Pro. It'll sound even more awesome. Hey, my marriage is at stake here. Help an audio-buddy out. You know you want to.
I'll post pics shortly. Any questions, shoot me a PM or post them here.
