Got a beta FW with Spotify Connect enabled from Devialet. Testing it since last saturday. Works perfectly !
Spotify Connect appears as an option on the left panel, as the other streaming platforms. Once enabled, you simply see your Phantom's room(s) (didn't tested it in multi-room config) in Spotify connect speaker's list and use it as any other Spotify Connect enabled speaker / ampli.
Once enabled, you don't really need Spark at all : volume control can be directly achieved through Spotify Volume slider (it controls your Phantom Volume). I have no idea about the sample rate used by Devialet for this Spotify Connect implementation, but the quality is great, actually way better than, for example, Spotify on PS4 through optical input on Phantom. Spotify says that it's possible to achieve better sample rates through Spotify Connect, though they do not give much more details about it.
I don't know what's prevent Devialet to release it publicly, but I have to say that this feature dramatically improve my Phantom experience !!!
