That is a good news , so as you said there is a kind of auto swicht that auto-detect the input ; and if it see the light (optical) it become ready to output it once selected.
So you answered my question about multiple optical input usage.
My experience with Devialet Phantom was not as good as some other owners; I've got a lot of problem because of a software bug.
But now , Devialet customer care force my Right Gold Phantom to get the 2.8.5 update (it was stuck at 2.8.0) and my listening experience is better.
But I still have unanswered questions that I asked Devialet Customer Care ... I've bought 2 Devialet Gold Phantom at one week interval
( I tried one first and bought a new one to get a stereo experience).
I had (like previously said) a whole bunch of problems; stability, dropping, missing Phantom... missing AirPlay... but all these side effect
seem to be ...because software difference between both Phantom 2.8.5 / 2.8.0
At that time, using a WIFI Sniffer test ; I saw another difference between my two Gold Phantom; One was using Liteon WIFI chipset and the other Gemicom WIFI chipset on description (name) of my WIFI client of my router.
And also noticed; that one was warmer than the other on standby operation; and the warmer was the one with the 2.8.5 software upgrade and was the Left. And from this chat people told me that the left been Master and trafficking a lot of data and sending that information to the right, so maybe that is why that Left Phantom draw 3 times more power from the source than the right one!
Now that I have the same version of the software for both of my Phantom , I did a new test... separate my Phantom, interchanging the
Left by the Right (now that was working!) and retest again all the power usage!
Now I have a new Left Master ( previously the Right one) and the power usage still the same , three time lower than the other Phantom on standby! (5.8 Watt)
So using this Phantom as the Master (left) does not increase is power usage... My question that Devialet did not answer is :
Is this the WIFI chipset from not the same manufacturer that cause this power usage gain or what cause that ?
So as conclusion ; for me it is not normal that one of the Phantom drain 3 x more power than the other one !
As my test suggest my M30P002754U10 Gold Phantom drain always (Master or Not - Left or Right) 5.8 W and
my M37P000874U06 Gold Phantom drain always ( " " " " " ) 15.8 W
Is there a defective Phantom ? Draining more power does mean less year of usage? Do I try to get a new one (replacement) from Devialet?
Any suggestions chat users ?
