Devialet

Devialet was founded in Paris in 2007. The company’s history began in 2004, when Pierre-Emmanuel Calmel, who was working in Nortel’s research and development laboratory, decided to leave his job in order to devote himself full time to working on the first prototype of a completely new type of hybrid audio reinforcement technology. This technology, called ADH, was soon created by him and immediately patented, as he saw great potential in it, which in the future could change the course of further development of high-quality sound reproduction technologies. Devialet holds over 160 patents.

About Devialet

Mathias Moronval, his former colleague at Nortel joined in 2006 by the rest of their current colleagues, as well as part-time musicians and passionate music lovers – specialists in industrial design, marketing and business management: Emmanuel Nardin, Quentin Sannie and Manuel de La Fuente. It was with this composition that they decided to create a new and dynamically developing company. Through their ambitious technology strategy and using all the necessary means to create high-tech products, Devialet has become one of those few successful and promising companies that today have their own face in the world of the ever-changing modern Hi-Fi market. First, let’s answer an interesting question: what does the company name mean? As it turned out, the word Devialet has nothing to do with the name of the founder or with any locality in France. This is the combined surname of Diderot’s colleague, the young French engineer Vialet, and the particle de.

The founders of Devialet are more than just colleagues: they are united by a common interest and a passionate belief that the sound, branded Live Lossless, was created thanks to ADH technology, a highly unique discovery that represents a valuable contribution to the technological and cultural progress of humanity.
