Long time, no see.
My Devialet voyage is coming to an halt. A couple of new stands for the Kii Threes blew the budget and something has to go. Never heard a couple of speaker stands make so much difference before.
Before
   

After
   

The only Phantom left is the first generation Silver on DOS1, doing its duty as the sound amplifier for the TV sound in the den. I do have the internals of another first generation Silver, so it might be a stereo system if I find a donor chassis.

Yes, the BXT "stands" will blow up the budget 🤣. Congrats!

Thanks a lot! Wasn't really a difficult decision when a mint pair of used BXT emerged. First time I've seen them for sale in Norway. The Phantom is a really good speaker, but the Three/BXT combo is in another league. 

Another show off picture from yesterday. Life is definitely good in the listing chair.

Thank you! Can't complain. Really nice skies before the sun disappeares in a couple of weeks.

Three out of four Phantom Silver sold, now the only left is the first generation Silver with DOS1. It might be sold in the coming weeks.

Was a pleasure to follow your journey. Thanks for sharing all the photos of your great view, the disassemblies, home theater etc.

It's been a blast and good fun! The journey might be over, but I still have the internals of a first generation Silver laying around and if a donor speaker emerges soon I might keep the assembled first generation Silver so I have a pair for the den. Really good value for money.

Glad you've enjoyed it, I certainly did! I suspect I will return to Devialet at some point in the future.
