Phantom vs Phantom Silver - fgueho - 12-May-2015
Has anyone heard the phantom AND the silver phantom?
Is there REALLY a difference?
It is said that even at low volume the SILVER PHANTOM will be a little bit better.
Is it just marketing stuff? Or theory?
In pratical, is it true? Is it possible to tell the difference?
I wonder...

One would assume that they were the same up to the point that the DSP bass management needed more than 750 watts. I certainly can not imagine why not, anyway.
RE: Phantom vs Phantom Silver - fgueho - 12-May-2015
And beyond 750w, it means beyond 100% volume on a normal phantom. So very very loud...
Louder than anyone will need (in normal conditions, in a normal room), no ?

I would imagine it would only be realized in dynamic peaks, interesting if anyone could compare

there is absolutely no difference below 750w. I have been demonstrated a stereo setup with a silver and a white and you could not hear any difference.

Considering the small price difference, I would rather go for Silver. More power is always good.
RE: Phantom vs Phantom Silver - fgueho - 13-May-2015
Yes, that's what I tought, initially.
But, I may reconsider.
If there is no difference below 750w, and if I will not go beyond 750w ever, why bother?
It's just throwing our money, no?
I plan to buy two phantoms, so more money to save...
But, I just want some feedbacks and opinions, for now.
RE: Phantom vs Phantom Silver - fgueho - 13-May-2015
Yeah, 600 euros more (2 phantoms). I understand the thinking. I will think about it.
How do you swap the white phantom for the silver one? With a cost?
Why "not in sound quality though"? Are you disappointed?
And why "not yet anyway"? Do you think they will improve over time?
RE: Phantom vs Phantom Silver - JohnnySix - 13-May-2015
My justification for not upgrading from 750W Phantoms is less heat to dissipate, and perhaps a lower electricity bill over the year. And a smallish living room. I do wonder though if the usual motor engine analogy still applies to Phantoms/Experts... a bigger engine often means a better sense of "ease" at all levels.
RE: Phantom vs Phantom Silver - fgueho - 13-May-2015
Have you been able to compare them with the silver ones?
