Yet another post from me...
My Phantoms work brilliantly as a mono unit with no Dialog, as far as I have tried so far.
With the Dialog and stereo the intermittent sound on one channel always happens at the beginning of each track, and monitoring wifi data transfer coincides with the track being initially (presumably) sent to the Dialog.
The music still sometimes stops mid track, and Spark is in pause mode but does not re-start where it left off.
Today I haven't had the crash/re-boot problems I had before but haven't tried any higher resolution files yet.
I am really enjoying the sound quality, despite the irritation of the brief loss of one channel at the beginning of each track...
Considering I normally would be listening to a system costing 40x more this is really something.
Could be expectation bias adding a bit of shine since the Phantom cleverly addresses almost all of the shortcomings of conventional speakers I am aware of.
