Phantom Ultimate summary

[Dvlt PhD]

Weirdest thing: Phantom Ultimate 108 is now missing a mid-range driver
1x Full-range aluminium dome
2x Woofers aluminium dome

Yeah, I thought so, too, until I compared real life picture comparisons between the 98 and 108.

It seems that maybe there is a typo in the descriptions, at the Devialet website.

The 98 is the one with one driver for mid and highs.

That's not correct.


Please take a look here for comparison with the 98 and specifications:

According to Customer Service at Devialet:

the new Phantom Ultimate series is intended to replace the previous Phantom I and Phantom II ranges. Devialet has simplified their line-up to two distinct models: the Phantom Ultimate 98 dB and the Phantom Ultimate 108 dB.

an "Optical Direct" mode is also available on both models and lower latency is mentioned here, but the analog input on the 98dB seems to be gone. There is no mention of how to enter "Optical Direct" mode so let us hope for a menu setting in the app.
At some point in the future the "Custom" versions for integrators will be based on the new Ultimate models. We can hope that the input module for both is inherited from the current Phantom II Custom, i.e. Dante, AES/EBU (balanced) or mono analog (balanced).
