Hi, i am a Silver Phantom owner.
Unfortunately, the Spark app turned me into a Devialet hater... and this is not going to change so far.
Devialet is really pushing us to buy an Apple Airport router (expensive with poor features) to get Itunes as a music player instead of the crappy Spark which is only good to play FLAC.
I've been able to find a solution working with the Raspberry PI 3 and HiFiBerry Digi+ (TosLink out)
This is not an out of the box working solution... but once it is set up and working you can turn a non wireless speaker into an airplay speaker.
Basically the RPi 3 is connected to your home network and will work as an Airplay server.
The RPi 3 is connected to the Phantom Dialog using the Toslink input.
Your music app like Itunes on desktop computer or Ipod Touch / Iphone with see the RPi as an Airplay client/Serveur.
This solution can be extended to every non wireless speakers with Toslink or 3.5 audio in capability.
what you need is :
* Raspberry Pi 3
* 8 GB SDHC card
* a power supply...

* HiFiBerry Digi+ std.

* Raspberry case

* TosLink cable.
* the Airplay client/server (software)

http://www.runeaudio.com/ (highly recommended) and very new to me
the next step for me is to use MusicBee to organize my music (Flac & MP3)

I can get you more explanations if you guys show a little interest in this thread.
Have fun !
