Am thinking of getting a Dione myself. Without doubt as a one box solution the Dione should be your natural choice. The Dione is engineered specifically for AV and has all the bells and whistles, the Phantom does not. As you will have read, there are 17 speakers embedded in the Dione with 8 of them dedicated to bass or subwoofers as they term them. The Dione will therefore be much better for movies. My own system will remain the same ie the Expert Pro driving the front speakers (the B&Ws) through my Denon for AV purposes. The Dione will be used in a separate room.
