That said... shouldn't make a difference. More than enough bandwidth in BlueTooth 4.0 to deliver lossless audio (and even video).
Hmm... not 100% convinced that BT even if it's 4.0 will be as good or stable as the Spark + WiFi Spotify Connect that the Phantoms have built in.
And enabling the BT function on Phantoms, will make it possible for any neighbor to start playing music on your system ( yes the BT range is limited) and yes it have happen to some poor Phantom over 3am in the morning waking up to the Phantom(s) blasting at full volume.
But I understand your joy , sounds fun to be able to do voice control
It's actually been bulletproof so far. Sadly, it's been MORE reliable than Spark has for me. I have periodic cutouts that I'm trying to diagnose. I have three Airport Extreme's connected via hardwire to broadcast and 500MB/sec fiber connection.
It's worth the $50 for the rest of you guys to try it
BTW, Echo on it's own is an awesome product. Goes beyond voice control of Devialet...
5 Devialet Gold's on branch stands, remote, dialog. Spotify Connect and Amazon Echo Dot driving voice control.
