Expert - 220 Pro

When Devialet hit the stage of the hi-fi world more than 10 years ago with the D-premiere, the innovative technology and fascinating design of the French amplifier was a real revolution. And that is still true today for the successor models of the Devialet EXPERT series PRO - thanks to constant development, Devialet has managed to be always (at least) one step ahead of the competition.

The Devialet EXPERT 220 PRO is the larger of the two stereo amplifiers in the Devialet EXPERT series and offers a peak output of 220 watts compared to the Devialet EXPERT 130 PRO. Of course, the Devialet EXPERT 220 PRO also uses the hybrid amplifier technology ADH® in the latest version V2. ADHV2® and thus ingeniously combines the tonal benefits of analog amplification with the precision and performance of modern Class D amplifiers.

With the active speaker management SAM®, the Devialet EXPERT 220 PRO is perfectly adapted to each speaker. To do so, Devialet Devialet EXPERTs regularly examine and measure speakers from multiple manufacturers to create an ever-growing database of speaker characteristics. The SAM® profiles as well as all other settings can be conveniently set up in an online configurator and transferred to the device on an SD card.

Devialet also uses its own converter technology called DAC Magic Wire® for the Devialet EXPERT 220 PRO. This is so integrated into the infrastructure of the device that the distance between D / A converter and speaker connections is only a record-breaking 5 cm. Harmful influences on the sensitive analogue signal have no chance.

Also in terms of connectivity, the Devialet EXPERT 220 PRO leaves nothing to be desired, it has connections for numerous digital and analog sources and has an integrated phono preamp for connecting a turntable. Compared to the Devialet EXPERT 130 PRO, this allows even more precise matching to the pickup used and has even better A / D conversion. The Devialet EXPERT 220 PRO receives music data via LAN cable or wirelessly via Wi-Fi, while Devialet has its own app for controlling streaming. The operation in everyday life is about the currently perhaps most beautiful remote control in the industry. In addition, the Devialet EXPERT 220 PRO can be connected over the network to up to 8 additional Devialet devices.

Like all devices in the Devialet EXPERT series, the Devialet EXPERT 220 PRO is also based on Devialet's Evo® platform and can be software-upgraded for future technical developments, new standards or formats.
