I very much respect Devialet and what they have accomplished. I also appreaciate chatting with some of Devialet's lead guys in the past.
Unfortunately, I could not get any traction on room correction capability. I assume it is due to technical challenges - otherwise, there's really no reason not to incorporate room correction which is very much needed for a unit so capable in the bass range.
I'll keep waiting and see if Devialet eventually relents.

This is exactly how I would do it with a pair of Golds. I have not yet purchased a pair as Devialet has not communicated how they intend to deal with broken units after warranty. A pre-defined exchange price for a unit swap (or new units in the case that the current model is different from the ones I own and the old model is no longer available).
As I own a Mutec and a microRendu 1.4 I'd probably use this instead of a solution with a Pi. I expect this would give even better sound too.
Looking forward to your report!

I used dspeaker anti mode dual core 2.0 - optical out to phantoms
And you can have analogue in, optical in, or coax in
Amazing box of tricks

Would plugging a Chromecast audio (RCA or optical) into the room correction box achieve what I want (wireless in from laptop / Spotify connect / Google Home / ...)?

Edit Reason: Add information on reclocking
)
I am not familiar with either, but Chromecast optical into a Dspeaker should work fine.
EDIT: the quality of the optical SPDIF output of Chromecast is not the best according to reports I've read. An SPDIF reclocker like the iFi iPurifier is necessary I believe

Hi!
What is best way to go with my system if i want room correction. I have now 2x Phantom Golds with Dialog, Source Mac Mini (late2014 sp/dif out upto 24/192) miniplug-toslink to dialog and i use spark/tidal hifi. I have dirac room calibration software with umik-1 mic and dirac au and vst beta-plug ins. Phantoms are connected with plc, dialog and mac are same network with lan. Should i use Audirvana or is there better options in my case? And what is best way to connect if i want to add ps4 and TV to my system? Thanks!

Hi Everybody,
I bought one pair of Ghosts three days ago, my system is configurated like this:
8K TV Samsung 65Q900R connected to Samsung Box Connect
connected via optical cable to DSpeaker Anti-Mode Duo Core 2.0
connected via optical cable to Devialet Dialog.
I´ve done a quick room analysis which resulted to a much lower bass level,
Running on wifi it was like a subwoofer was cut down.
Running on Bluetooh the Ghost are keeping their imponator bass strength.
I have to mention that you can adjust the treble range via the DSpeaker but
you cannot attenuate the bass range just raising up...
