DeVore DeVore Fidelity Twenty

DeVore Fidelity is a New York-based loudspeaker brand founded by John DeVore in 2000. DeVore, a Rhode Island School of Design graduate, began building speakers years earlier as a hobby while studying and later working in Manhattan audio retail, giving the company a strongly hands-on, designer-led heritage.

The company is known almost exclusively for speakers, not electronics or accessories. Its core lines include the Gibbon, Orangutan, and Silverback families, with a reputation for efficient designs that are often friendly to lower-powered amplifiers. That focus on a small, carefully developed product range is a defining part of the brand.

In the market, DeVore Fidelity sits firmly in the high-end boutique tier. It is a niche brand rather than a mass-market one, admired by serious hi-fi buyers for musical, room-friendly loudspeakers with distinctive character and artisanal build quality. The company’s appeal is especially strong among listeners who value premium two-channel systems and a more personal, independent approach to speaker design.
