Wow I'm away for day or so and this thread really took off! Thank you everyone who responded and to those who answered my questions. This has turned out to be a very informative discussion.
With respect to the Devialet speakers I like to think of them as "a shot across the bow" by one high end manufacturer to other manufacturers, by which I mean that if consumer audio is going to move forward with the one box/active speaker model versus the multi-box/passive speaker model then mistakes and misfires are going to happen. So while these Devialet speaker may come up a little short at least they are out there and creating some very interesting discussions,like this one.
