Lol ;-)
Seriously though, I have had my Phantoms for just over 2 weeks now. Streaming they are flawless. And the sound is awesome. I just love the bass they produce... I am a Techno lover, so I know (at least a bit) what I am talking about... However, connected through the Toslink connector, I have experienced short drops in sound <1s several times an hour. I tried with a Toslink matrix and directly connected to all my devices individually, but the drops occur in all configurations so I am pretty sure it's in the Devialet equipment... The drops are annoying, but I guess I can live with them for now.
If you can live with a short drop in sound every, say, 10 minutes you are fine. If you can't live with that and don't want to stream, well then I guess there may be a problem...
2 Phantom Gold's + Dialog. Sony Bravia TV + Mopidy server (Mac Mini playing from a network connected 4bay QNAP NAS) + Minix Neo U1 + Lindy A/D convertor connected through a Lindy 4x1 Optical switch.
