Should Apple acquire Devialet/Phantom?

[ogs]

No, I have said many times that Phantom is a wonderful design. I just do not want Apple to move into audio business and destroy it. I am not anti Apple, I am anti any BIG... fill in what you want here. HomePod is a mass market 'life style' product. It will probably sell well, but it is still mediocre as an audio product. Devialet is not handling Phantom well. Nor are they dealing particularly well with the Expert amps, but Expert amps sound good and Phantoms can sound fine. I do not think that would be the case if Apple was the developer.
