Devialet's newest technology...?

[IanG-UK]

Haha, indeed and also all the people that pay Devialet enough to buy a 120/200/250/400/800!

Reading all this I think Dialog could be the (beginning of the) end for AIR but perhaps both will stay to exist as you'd need to buy an additional box. In any way I'm very curious how it will compare to my music server.

Yes the Dialog functionality (once extended beyond USB connectivity) will probably become the new standard - if you buy the Dialog box. So I suspect AIR will remain, if you want conventional router connectivity, but maybe they will not push it further as it has been, for many, and for a long period, pretty unreliable.

What are the odds we'll start seeing even more powerful Devialet amps now that they've shrunk down the technology?

Look at those peak amplification numbers!

Also is the phantom using same DAC?

I doubt they will hike up the amplifier power. Power beyond 800W does not (or has not historically) sold top end hifi. It aligns too much with (tacky) PA stuff IMO.

OTOH, 3000W may help to sell an upmarket boom box replacement as the market segment will be different. Hence the first UK outlet is Harrods and not Absolute Sounds' top few hifi dealers.
