Thanks @ragwo ! :-)
@misterhon I have 2 home theaters that use phantoms in my house. Both are using Dante. The reason for this is to overcome a limitation of Devialet's software. Currently Devialet can not process Dolby Digital or DTS encoded audio. As a result you need to insert a device to decode the surround sound audio (ie Anthem AVM60). From the Anthem you then are able to send 5 discrete signals to 5 separate phantoms. I accomplish this by using Audinate AVIO XLR to Dante converters and Devialet's Dante to Optical converters. Additionally, I have all of my phantoms operating in either "Optical Direct Mode" or "Custom Install Mode" which converts them to simple active speakers. As a result I don't use Spark or the Devialet App to control my phantoms. I use my Anthems or my Symetrix to control tone, volume, and sources.
Hope this helps
