Hello all,
I'd like to share and ask your thoughts about 2 Classic Phantoms I installed yesterday at my home.
Installation was very straight forward, thanks to the quick and intuitive setup from the Android app.
Quick configuration is:
I have compared extensively, with Spotify Connect and same musics with my other systems:
I have made following tests:
I am sad because I love the principles and aesthetics of the Phantoms I am waiting for an advice from the Devialet support.
Did you experience this ? Is there any setting I may have missed ?
Thanks for your thoughts,
Emmanuel
PS: serial numbers of the Phantoms are following + these are reconditionned units from Devialet with makes me think I am not the first disappointed customer with these.
I'd like to share and ask your thoughts about 2 Classic Phantoms I installed yesterday at my home.
Installation was very straight forward, thanks to the quick and intuitive setup from the Android app.
Quick configuration is:
- Spotify Connect over 5 GHz Wi-Fi network
- DOS 2.10.0
- listening room 4m large / 5m deep
- low-medium almost absent
- bass very weak
I have compared extensively, with Spotify Connect and same musics with my other systems:
- Google Home Max stereo pair: far better presence, low mids and bass - sure very low frequency extension and highs clarity on the Phantoms are better.... but not that much...
- Bang & Olufsen setup with BeoLab 1s and BeoLab 2: blows away the Phantoms
I have made following tests:
- check each driver: all are operating
- move the Phantoms to the same place were my Google Home Max's and B&O setup are: same bad results
- mono listening of each Phantom to search for phase issues or one of them's malfunction: same
- Bluetooth listening (mono / stereo): same
I am sad because I love the principles and aesthetics of the Phantoms I am waiting for an advice from the Devialet support.
Did you experience this ? Is there any setting I may have missed ?
Thanks for your thoughts,
Emmanuel
