Devialet has launched their latest Devialet Phantom Ultimate in Malaysia, albeit sans the invitation to attend the local launch.
Devialet Phantom Ultimate is created by Devialet’s engineers and designers in Paris, to produce a signature sound and technological excellence that have made the French acoustic engineering house world-renowned. A radically singular silhouette instantly draws the eye, striking in its timeless character.
The design of Devialet Phantom Ultimate strikes balances of timelessness with bold innovation. While inheriting the visual of Devialet Phantom, Devialet Phantom Ultimate refines its signature elongated silhouette into a statement of absolute purity and precision.Â
Removing the woofer core cover on the Devialet Phantom Ultimate 108 dB improves its look and emphasizes its presence. This smooth design required significant changes to the speaker’s central core and assembly process, showcasing Devialet’s commitment to blending form and function. The tweeter grille, collaboratively designed by engineers and designers, features cleaner lines and an optimized aperture, balancing aesthetics and acoustic performance after six months of research.
Devialet Phantom Ultimate debuts in two bold finishes. Deep Forest offers a dark tone with black chrome detailing that reveals green reflections, while Light Pearl, inspired by bisque ceramics, features an ultra-matte off-white hue.
The Devialet Phantom Ultimate range incorporates proprietary technologies that highlight the brand’s reputation in acoustic engineering. Notably, the latest ADH New Gen technology combines analog Class A’s finesse with the compact power of digital Class D amplification. This advancement enhances high-frequency precision, reaching up to 35 kHz, while improving energy management and thermal dissipation for optimal amplification performance. Learn more at below:
SAM® (Speaker Active Matching):
Complementing ADH, SAM is an algorithm engineered to deliver absolute fidelity while continuously protecting the loudspeakers. By adapting in real time to both transient and steady-state signals, SAM® enables Devialet Phantom Ultimate to reproduce the phase and amplitude of sound waves with exceptional accuracy.
HBI (Heart Bass Implosion):
A suite of multiphysics innovations powers the emission of ultra-low frequencies in a compact form factor – reaching depths of 14 Hz. The result: infra-bass you don’t just hear, but feel inside.
AVL (Adaptive Volume Level)
Originating from the Devialet Dione soundbar, this technology automatically adjusts volume in real time based on content type. This dynamic adaptation ensures an audio experience that meets the highest cinematic standards.
Devialet Phantom Ultimate is powered by a new NXP i.MX 8M Nano processor, integrated into a system-on-a-chip (SoC). This evolved technological core delivers advanced audio processing with enhanced energy efficiency and optimized performance.
The latest version of Devialet OS (DOS3), introduced with the Devialet Astra integrated amplifier, aims to support the future range of Devialet products through a unified interface. It features a variety of streaming protocols, including AirPlay, Google Cast, Roon Ready, Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, and UPnP, catering to a diverse listening experience.
It also offers personalized listening for any type of content using different audio modes created by Devialet engineers. In Music Mode, the sound is just as the artist wanted. Podcast Mode makes voices clear, making it feel like an intimate conversation. Cinema Mode puts you right in the middle of the action for a full theater experience.
A new six-band equalizer lets you adjust the sound frequencies, so you can make your listening experience just how you like it.
With the Bass Reducer and Loudness features, you can customize your listening even more, giving you control over deep bass and better sound at lower volumes.
The Devialet App acts as a control center and offers easy access to software updates, making sure your speakers keep getting better over time.
