The Devialet 200, especially with a pair of SAMable speakers, is a stunning success. I still cannot believe that this small, shiny, pizza box can produce a sound that is very musical, huge in scale, massively detailed and never harsh or tiring, regardless of musical genre, even at high volume.

The Pizza box also contains a high quality streamer, a very high quality Phono section for vinyl and world-class DAC, which work seamlessly together.

It's also upgradeable, beautifully built and meticulously designed.

A game-changing device.

Bear in mind it's around ear, not on ear that you prefer.
Yep, I seem to keep changing my mind! I found the Bose Quiet Comfort 3 for £220 at Bicester Village Bose shop but have now decided I don't like the idea of charging them and would prefer battery's.

I am also thinking it makes some sense getting the Bose QC15 than the QC25 because they are a lot cheaper. I was waiting for the deals and then to decide, or wait for something new to come out.

The fiber optic connection to the WWW and TV/radio in my house. And my new gear for music and movies. All in all, a great year with Samsung, TEAC and B&W.

Sennheiser HD700's.

Super comfy, easy to drive and sound fantastic. They're quite a bargain now the prices have dropped too.

AVI DM5's.

Amazing value for money. Sound quality to match the best I've heard but at a fraction of the cost.

The Bose QuietComfort 20i in-Ear phones are great too and shouldn't be overlooked. I fly a lot on business and these things are indispensible on long haul. Being in-Ear they allow me to sleep whilst wearing them - even if I'm lying on my side. I just switch the music off, leave the noise-cancelling on, and all the aircraft noise (and most of the screaming baby noises) goes away. - Magical bliss!

Ah, cheers! Nice one.
