Tidal Speakers owners

Hi Rohitmalh,

What is/was wrong with the Devialet D Premier you mentioned earlier? I do read a lot

about this device and many owners do lose their enthusiasm after a while. Can you

describe (in short) what went wrong (tone character emotion)?
Would be nice to know because I was thinking about the NAD M2 driving my Contriva’s,

connected to a mediaplayer......

Thanks
Robert

I think of the Piano Diaceras as mini Sunrays and with the X-Tenders as mini T-1's. If I were to get the X-Tenders, which I am not, I would prefer flat black portals versus the shiny stainless steel. I like the all black monolithic look.

"even better than the TIDAL Contriva Diacera"...I think that is up to the ears of the individual listener.

A highly musical Piano Diacera set-up, imo. Hope Georgemg don't mind us sharing it here.

Prove that it doesn't have to be Tidal everything to make it work.. Well perhaps if a dealer I'd too say otherwise.

about Piano Diacera + X-tender v.s Contriva Diacera
i think it's taste problem

Piano Diacera is 2 1/2 way, Contriva Diacera is 3 way
this make sound direction different.

without the X-tender..
Contriva Diacera sounds better than Piano Diacera...

but when Piano Diacera team up with X-tender..
the bass goes deeper than Contriva Diacera
and midrange is so wide...

personal i love it more than Contriva Diacera

Personally, I'd rather keep things nice and simple..

Want/need more bass, simply get bigger models up. When you hit ceiling with flagship pair, and found them insufficient still, I'd be looking at other viable options. Four tower solution just not for me.
