Tuesday morning Devialet unveiled the Phantom: a first product "general public" that the brand also has as its most technologically leading product.

A musical experience

Here we are in Devialet office, sitting in front of a series of these Phantom around us. Struck by the design of the device, almost in the form of a white egg, magic starts at startup. Both sides began to feel the rhythm of the music and the small device fills the sound room. The quality is impressive. For the first selected track, a live concert, the audience applaud and start screaming to give you the feeling of having the crowd on your lap, to be part of it ... the sound is so clear and present.

A minute later, the CEO of Devialet will add a second Phantom that syncs immediately with the first to give a new dimension to the music. Needless to say, 2 Phantom seem sufficient background music for the biggest party you may wish to do.

Devialet will nevertheless push the "vice" to spread the sound of 10 Phantom simultaneously. The first sounds of Dark Side of the Moon are heard and you are immediately immersed in the music. I know very well the Pink Floyd track for listening to hundreds of times ... but I had never heard clearly as now. Chills through me arms, and all along the spine. Here I am definitely rallied to the cause of Devialet.

"The Phantom is a product that should not exist"

The confession of Pierre-Emmanuel Calmel (co-founder and CTO of Devialet), the Phantom has been so technically challenging and a "miracle of engineering" that should not exist. Marketé like the sound center that replaces all (both chain, docks, home cinema and speakers), the Phantom is as a compendium of the best technology amplification coupled with the best speakers in the world.

For this new product, Devialet had to start from scratch, question anything that might seem acquired him. The result: the Phantom would be able to hear the sound in the room exactly as it was recorded with an accuracy never achieved. Obviously, these are the conclusions of Devialet after testing hundreds of competing systems, but the result is actually the most impressive I've been able to experience before.

A pleasure available from € 1,690 (and up to € 1,990 Silver version will pass the specs 750W to 3000W) the very affordable if you compare with other brand products.

Delivery Expected from January 15. But if you want to discover the Phantom in operation, the better will probably schedule a visit to the Rue Reaumur store in Paris, just to shiver again on Dark Side of the Moon.
