When to buy Phantoms?

BT and Airplay support are needed if Devialet wants to sell Phantom to "normal" people, who are not ready to put the effort we do to improve sound reproduction.

GREAT Article...
 I don’t want a better Devialet app; I want to use my favorite apps: Spotify, Soundcloud, Deezer … And be able to control the volume with my smartphone buttons.  That’s all I need."


Myself...I like to use my Sonos (90% using Spotify)....and maybe it is now possible by the optical input..but I don't want it crash or get some kind of (time) delay as Sonos is a Multi-Room system
Devialet Silver Phantoms pair + Dialog, will be connected through DSPeaker 2.0 ( DSP / Room-Correction) and hopped-up G-sonos. ( thinking of ROON) "Retiring" Goldmund / JOB225 Amp, Antony Gallo Reference 3.5. Keeping Active Bang & Olufsen Beolabs in different rooms connected to Sonos.

Guys,

I just received the 'free bluetooth module' from Colette.

It's an Optoma Nu Force BTR-100 with an optical cable:

It's a nice freebie, but it's a bit of an extra thing to have attached to the speakers.

I think it's pretty good of Devialet to provide these, really.

...Have Devialet announced a date when the up-dated Phantoms with built-in BT module will be available ?

Nice but that's another socket to take up if one uses bluetooth, never used it myself tbh. Does anyone know when the phantoms will be widely available for demo? Doing the maths a pair of phantoms including the dialog and stands is about the same price as a dev 120?
