I have just received this email.
Dear friend,
You are among the first PHANTOM owners.
Thanks to you, PHANTOM has become a historical success. A a token of our appreciation, we offer you today to buy a new PHANTOM with an exceptional 30% discount.
You will receive your new PHANTOM within a few days. It integrates Bluetooth technology and lets you play your music easily from any native application.
This will make them about the same price as buying directly from France. I expect they have received complaints that the UK online store charges more. No offer for the same discount on the Branch or remote though.

Me too. Seriously tempting, as I've got one undergoing repair from serious damage at the moment (an insurance job). It was knocked off its stand - Phantom's centre of Gravity is a little on the high side!

It states that the offer is by name only and they give a discount code.

- is 2 years for the Phantom warranty period about standard for hifi speakers?

Yes it has to be sent back to France.
2 years is standard plus 3 from Devialet once you register your product

The discount is true, I also got an offer so I ordered a 3rd Phantom (for my office).
BUT:
It is a one-time offer.
It's only for the earliest among Phantom owners.
And only for 1 Phantom (with or without Dialog).
The discount is personal. So one can not transfer the discount to someone else.
I heard this discount is probably due to initial problems with the system and the patience of early costumers. And I must say, the first months with Phantom/Dialog/Spark have not been as easy as more recent months.
I think it's a nice gesture from Devialet.

Mine was sent to StoneAudio in Dorset (UK). It was the Insurer's decision. Good luck to them... I'm pretty sure that a new one at 30% discount will be more economically viable than a repair by a high-end dealer!
