Is this true? Are they that good and it is the way to upgrade? rather than to a Pro, which I guess is what they embed inside the Golds.
I am thinking like this too. €3500 to upgrade my 250 or around €5800 for a pair of Phantom Gold and a Dialog. I need new speakers anyway so this may be the way to do it.
I thought they sounded decent when I demo'd them and would probably have considered selling my Expert and going Phantom, if:
a) Devialet hadn't upset me to the point I lost faith in the brand around that time
b) Spark wasn't dire and/or they embraced the use of external players (RoonReady anyone)
c) They had some alternate finishes
D) there weren't reports of stability issues.
