get rid of the dialog - lahyene - 28-Jan-2018 Hi there I m using a pair of gold phantom with a dialog router and I have to say that I am really disappointed with the Dialog: It's very often that I m obliged to reset it, and today for XXXXX times at boot it blinked red (3 times button push very fast) it has been changed twice in 2 years by Devialet support. And today for XXXXX times at boot it blinked red but it doesn't want to reset Do any of you know a way to use my phantoms without dialog ?? I want to stream airplay, a tv, an Xbox and obviously the music ??? any idea ?? thanks Lahyene RE: get rid of the dialog - martinskeem - 28-Jan-2018 I don't think there is a way if you want to use the Phantoms in a stereo pair. How is the Dialog connected? I have had a number of problems as well, but since I had the Dialog replaced with a newer version (I had a pre-Airplay version from 2015) and connect it to my network using cable and the Phantoms using PLC, everything is relatively stable (a reboot - not reset - is still occasionally required every quarter or-so). I use either Spotify connect or the optical input - never Spark for anything but change of inputs. If I need to play network files or other services I use a Sonos Connect. It baffles me that Devialet insists on competing with Sonos, Google, Amazon or Spotify on building the best user interface instead of focusing efforts on hardware and a solid interface for integrating to these services. Firmware does seem to have improved reliability, so I recommend that you upgrade to most recent firmware if you haven't already. RE: get rid of the dialog - Johnnydev - 28-Jan-2018 Strange, i did not have any problems at all! Not with the older version from 2015 and also not with the newer version since a few monts. RE: get rid of the dialog - lahyene - 28-Jan-2018 Thanks for Ur answers everything is connected through ethernet and and I m using an optical from the dialog to the TV It happens very often that when I start the whole devialet team (if I may say) that the dialog is blinking red to solve that: I use to triple clic on the crystal button. But this time it doesn't works. even after many attempt I thought that someone here at the forum connect it's phantoms to a different hardware ?? thanks Guys RE: get rid of the dialog - Johnnydev - 28-Jan-2018 (28-Jan-2018, 18:22)lahyene Wrote: Thanks for Ur answers Mine is also optical connected with my TV Is there maybe something wrong with your ethernet connection? RE: get rid of the dialog - snbeall - 28-Jan-2018 Have you tried simply unplugging the Dialogue for a while then plugging back in?

Maybe your only best option is Roon....(www.roonlab.com) Connect two Roon enabled devices via optical links to both phantoms... and group play those devices via Roon... the two phantom will be playing same source...you may not have a perfect stereo output..but the sound quality will be excellent... The cheapest option is to get Raspberry Pi 3b and hifiberry digi sound card...and you’ve got a Roon enabled device for around £100. So.. around £600 in total including Roon life membership... Good luck RE: get rid of the dialog - ogs - 30-Jan-2018 @lahyene you should read through this thread https://devialetchat.com/showthread.php?tid=3695& there is quite a bit of information relevant to your question in it.
