That's exciting news! Don't tell my better half though, she is more than a willing to sacrifice my Phantom surround setup for a soundbar.
If you say so, I wont
But I think the salesman said it was only an 2:1 soundbar. So i dont think it will be challenger to your real surround setup.
A 5.5 surround setup with Phantoms? Thats possible? Doesnt it endager the structural intergrity of your house if you turn them up? ![Big Grin Big Grin](https://devialetchat.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
You connected them via optical or wirelessly? Can you send me a link to how you did it? Im really interrested in it.
Can one also do a 5.5 or 5.0 setup with Phantom 1s AND Phantom Reactors at the same time? Like L/R front Phantom 1 and as a center and L/R back Reactors? Or does it distort the sound spectrum?
Questions over questions...

That's dissapointing, a 2:1 soundbar is not even comparable to 2 golds. I was hoping that it would be a subwoofer and control center for a surround setup with phantoms (so that you dont need to do all kinds of tricky stuff like ragwo and njaiwal
, aaaah well, devialet had never been about the easy way (although my phantoms do fine)
Just to be clear:
Please take nothing that I say for a fact. The guy at the hifi store only told me that Devialet is going to release a soundbar. (So i dont think it is developed in cooperation with an other company)
Possibly in the same price range like a Phantom. Maybe he meant priced like two Phantoms, maybe even Opera Edition, then it will be very expensive.
But its Devialet, so who knows...
(My guess with 2000-3000 Euros could then be completly incorrect.)
I didnt ask any more questions about it, because i was not really interrested in a soundbar.
If the soundbar will really function as a controller for a surround setup, then a higher price will most definitely be the case.
Ragwo said something about 16 woofers, if thats true it could be a real beast.

I think he said nothing explicitly about surround functions. So for me it sounded more like a stereo soundbar. Maybe it is and will function, like you said, as a center control speaker for a surround setup with phantoms.
That sounds pretty interresting and if its the case, well thought through by Devialet.
Im going to ask him again, maybe i can get some more information.
