US Phantom Official release - AudioElegance - 28-May-2015 Hello All, I just received official announcement of the Phantom release in the US. I will be browsing the information in the forum to learn more. I am very interested in any excitement or issues that current owners are experiencing. Kind regards, Jay RE: US Phantom Official release - f1eng - 28-May-2015 Welcome Jay. I had silver Phantoms from the first factory delivery. The sound quality was astonishingly good from the beginning but the launch software was very unstable. It has been updated several times, both the Spark controlling software and the internal firmware in both the Phantoms and the Dialog. Mine are stable now and still sound just as great. I could live with them as my main system (though I won't) I don't think any conventional hifi comes close at the price, but you do give up a conventional type of connectivity and if you are a cable or box swapper they are not for you...

Is stereo operation now consistent and reliable? I'm very, very intrigued by the Phantom system but some of the early reports on the software and Dialog in particular were pretty bad.

Very stable, no crashes or the like. It 'just works'. As it should have done from the beginning.(28-May-2015, 15:12)f1eng Wrote: Welcome Jay. I'm going to be adding a 3rd one to my set up, mainly for movies to see what happens. The only caveat is the Spark setup is still a nightmare. It is a sit on the edge of your seat experience waiting for it to work. RE: US Phantom Official release - fgueho - 28-May-2015 I have heard them today in a 4 phantoms setup. It's awesome for movies. I love it. RE: US Phantom Official release - 02nz - 28-May-2015 Thanks, Stonedragon. I can live without Spark and use just Airplay through Airport Express at least for the time being. RE: US Phantom Official release - AaronG - 28-May-2015 Will they be available through dealers in the US, or directly, or both? I would love to buy a pair. RE: US Phantom Official release - MountainGuy - 31-May-2015 Are there anyone in the USA who already own Phantoms ? if so, did you order directly from Europe? Thanks!

I have the 800s in one of the rooms and they are amazing. Very nice setup you have!

There is some really nice stuff coming. (28-May-2015, 23:45)AaronG Wrote: Will they be available through dealers in the US, or directly, or both? I would love to buy a pair. I am not sure at this point. I have only received information on pricing and ordering as well as features available in the US.

I Do not believe that you can order US compatible voltages from Europe at this time. RE: US Phantom Official release - NickB - 31-May-2015 It is an automatic Switch Mode PSU and uses whatever voltage is available you just need a different cable. |
