The do very well for musicality and sound stage at low volume. But you should treat them as proper stereo speakers by:
- putting them on stands
- position them properly in the room
Far too many people place them anywhere they like, to suit their lifestyle. Devialet have to take the blame for this because their marketing. However, treated properly as a hifi product, the Phantoms will reward you with excellent sound quality.

Welcome too and fully agree with your statement.
Hi Snoopy8,
Thank you. It is a pleasure to be here.
That is very good advice to treat them as proper speakers. I was initially think of just having them on my TV console but that would not allow them to project properly.
What stands would you recommend? The ones from Devialet or other bookshelf stands?
Appreciate your reply. Thank you once again!!!
