Apple Store will sell Devialet Phantom
#31
I stopped by the Michigan Ave Apple store in Chicago a couple of weeks ago. They had one silver ans one white Phantom. IT was the first time I saw them and I have to say the silver looked cheap to me. Actually I thought the plastic finish looks cheap on both white and silver phantoms. They also had a couple of remotes and dialogues.

Both were playing in mono along side a bunch of other boxes by beats, etc. Could not judge the sound as the sore was very loud. One Apple guy approached me and told me Devialet sent a rep to the store to showcase the Phantoms to the reps. Also they had to change the package to remove the semi-nude women and men smoking a cigarette, which I thought was very funny.

The guy I talked to had no idea about all the software reliability issues with phantom/dialogue. I then asked him ho many they had sold and he said he though none had been sold. I know the store had the phantoms for a t least a month on display.

Does not look like the partnership is working very well at this point.

Haha funny yeah! If they change it into people with guns it will be fine though I guess. Only in America...
