Cabasse introduced the pearl, a phantom like speaker. At least some competition for the phantoms? It is just as “pretty” as the phantom but the specs look good. Wonder how good the software is and if it has latency problems.

Looks nice, quite expensive though. It's interesting to see that Devialet has just released a cheaper Phantom option while the competition released a more expensive one.
Cabasse is quite a master when it comes to make bubble like loudspeakers. But I like the Phantoms more.
The 10" woofer sounds interesting, with 1000W RMS! (Power war has started, talking RMS is a nice touch). But I hope they managed to deal with vibrations, which is one advantage of the opposite woofers of the Phantoms. And I can't help thinking that a stand is missing...
I like the RCA inputs and room correction. Two features definitely missing on the Premier line.
Competition is always good.

Cabasse wishes it was able to innovate technology like Devialet.

i beg to differ…..from an audiophile point of view, the ls50 is ahead of the phantom in sheer sound quality (of my silvers at least) and i also have a pair of kii 3 which is another level altogether….but at a different price of entry point…..but happy for you to feel otherwise….

LS50 Wireless versus Phantom Gold...................I though the Golds were much better sound-wise than the Kef?
(we know that software Kef is better)
I've never heard either and am looking for opinions.
