Can I ask are the people with issues connecting their speakers together via Ethernet cable? Or PLC?
I have some golds on latest DOS on the way and rather hoping they will be stable on PLC or ethernet! ?

I can't stand those updates anymore.
DOS 1
never had any issue whatsoever
DOS 2 (2.8.3)
lost multi room
got stereo sync issue with 2 Golds
DOS 2 (2.8.5)
no more sync issue
was able to get around multi room with Roon (3 golds)
DOS 2 (2.9.0)
sync issue is back worse than ever
one of the stereo pair often shuts off randomly (need to reset every time)
multi room (3 Golds) does not work any more with Roon (after 30 min playing)
Today 2 out 3 golds have been unplugged given all these issues. this is really getting too frustrating.
NB
All Golds are closeby the wifi router and set on auto (wifi/CPL)
I encounter all these issues on wifi or CPL alone

Even after connecting my two Golds via Ethernet I still experience the issues described earlier in this thread. Devialet have downgraded my Phantoms to 2.8.5 now and all seems well. My garbled sound issues apparently had to do with a fix for "AirPlay piano crackles" that I never had. I will beta test any new software Devialet releases next to make sure this issue doesn't affect more users in the future.
For now everything's back up running smoothly again.
Edit: I want to add that Devialet has been super constructive and forthcoming with this issue. They reached out to me after I submitted the bug report thru the web interface.

After updating to DOS 2.8.5 then 2.9.0 and having huge instability issues (e.g., volume reset, speaker drop out, device disappearance from the Devialet app, etc.), I finally achieved a stable system by minimizing the number of possible sources of instability (which included eliminating use of Dialog, which appeared unstable). The stable system consists of two Phantom classics plugged into the same surge protector and using PLC. All audio gets fed into the system via a single optical cable into one of the Phantoms. The audio signal is fed from a sound mixer, into which all audio sources are connected. The sound mixer eliminates the need to change sources in the Devialet system (e.g., optical, Bluetooth, etc.). Switching inputs seemed to introduce instability.
