Decolouration Plastic - MrSinister - 25-Dec-2015
Anyone else's Phantoms affected by decolouration on the ring just above the midrange unit? The white plastic is turning slightly yellow/brown on mine. Seems like some sort of heat decolouration

Both of my silvers are effected by this too

The one with Devialet's logo?
It's still white on mines (silvers).

Looks awful for a nearly new unit. IMO try to get new from Devialet. Warranty should covery this kind of discoloration.

Same on mine, purchased this summer, smoke-free house.

I have the same issue at the exact same place. Smoke free home. Loudspeaker under four months old.
RE: Decolouration Plastic - MrSinister - 25-Dec-2015
I tried wiping it of with my finger and it looks like it is gone. But hard to tell because of the deffirent light (no sunlight right now). Perhaps it is coming from the material the midspeakers are made of? Maybe when it gets warm when in use. Will check again tomorrow.
