@streamy and @Jean-Marie Thanks a lot!
An update is in place, and I started with the easy part, the gutting of the banged up Phantom. Using the original packaging makes the opening process a lot easier.
There are some noticeable differences between the Phantom Gold and first generation Silver, even for a guy like me who finds it hard to tell the difference between a capacitor and transistor. The metal cover is matte and perforated in the Silver and polished without perforation in the Gold. It seems like Devialet considered another metal cover in the first version but skipped it.
The Sliver has four transistors? Gold has six.
I should have compared the wireless network cards while at it, but I forgot at the time. Maybe next time the PCBs are out in the open.
