My Phantom voyage

[Gamma]

Hello, I was shocked by the price of the Devialet theater system. I'm very interested in your plan, may I ask:
1. How is the 4.0 surround effect?
2. Can you explain how to connect it and how to set it up in the Devialet app?

I set up the speakers as two pairs L-R front and back. The surround prosessor is sending front L-R to one AD-converter, back L-R to the other. The AD-converters are sending the signal via Toslink to Phantom front and back. Set the volume to approximately 80% on both pairs of Phantom and use the surround preamp as volume control. Voilà; cheapo(ish) surround setup. Workes as a charm!

Thank you very much for your reply! Can I speculate that the two front-mounted Phantoms have already been set up as a pair through the Devialet app on the phone; and the AD-converters transmit the signal to one of these pair through toslink。  the same as the back pairs。 right？

You're welcome!
The speakers were divided into two pairs, front and back. I had a center Phantom too, but that's not strictly necessary.

New speakers! Sigberg Audio Manta with 10D subs. Sounds splendid!

End game turntable, probably.
