Short answer No. To me the music is as good if not better. I still want to play air guitar or tap my feet when the music is on. Plus it's easy to control from an iPad or iPhone. Especially using the N-serve app for the UnitiServe. Mind you, my wife says I have no sense of Rhythm anyway....

Hi Leica & MikeJazz Sorry for not responding earlier. I did have a Naim 252 pre amp and SuperCap2, 2x135 power amps, NAT 01 tuner, CDS2 and XPS power supply. Nakimichi CR7 Cassette deck all housed in a Mana 8 level frame. Quite a lot of boxes. Seems a lot less crowded now! Using Yamaha NS1000m speakers and they sound better than ever. lapman

I have my Devialet 170 for two weeks and I think it's great. Using with a Naim Unitiserve and an Linn LP12. You have to listen and much better than loads of Naim boxes. Even the wife likes it..lapman
