As I sayd , I come from France and it seems that french products are not very popular in great britain.
Certainly for historical reasons according to someones , but I'm wondering what's the other causes ?

Some of you may have heard it, some others got french speakers or amplifiers at home ?

Devialet D-Premier here. (I've also got the Frog Gold cartridge, but that's actually Dutch). Part of the reason that French products aren't so popular here is that UK buyers have tended to concentrate on either UK, Japanese or US products. There are relatively few importers of French equipments, and it's only rarely reviewed in the UK hifi press.

There is a new devialet product named Phantom wich have been much written about since they nammed it the best speaker in the world http://fr.devialet.com/phantom-implosive/#decouvrir
Of course, everybody's free to have is own opinio about it

What surprise me is that we have many importers of english equipements in here !

My only foray into French Hi-fi was a pair of Trangle Naia. Liked them actually but once run-in the bass became over blown in my room.

Indeed it is, and we very rarely pop over, shame on us.

I use a Micromega MyDac and and happy with it although it was not compared to anything in its price range. I remember when I first went to buy a cd player [25yearsago] Micromega were recommended but came away from the shop disappointed with the quality of cd. I believe certain models though are still highly regarded.

I had a Micromega Stage (Mine was a stage 3) player yonks ago and if memory serves, thought it very good indeed.

I've had some Focal Chorus 714S speakers... Never really worked well in my room, so have been moved on pretty quickly.
