Devialet Phantom Unboxing, The Wait Really Is Over!

[HiFi Lounge]

Hi All,

The same as many of you I have been looking forward to Devialet’s Phantom since announced late last year, well now the wait is over as our demo stock has just arrived so before I go and have a play I thought I would post a few pictures of the un-boxing of both the Silver Phantom and Dialog, our standard Demo Phantom will be with us early next week, I have to say that Devialet really have gone to town on the packaging, you really do feel like you really have purchased something very special indeed.

Also they say that a heavy product is a sign of quality, well Phantom is certainly a quality product as it weighs a tonne, literally speaking, I know anyone who buys one will be really surprised at the weight considering its size.

I guess I should take this opportunity to promote our Devialet Open Day again on July 25th where you will be able to hear Phantom and Expert amps running with representatives here from Devialet, I am thinking of running Expert in HiFi Lounge with Phantom in Highend Headphones then we can have both running all day, I will confirm the setups nearer the time, more info below -

Hey Paul, so how has you're "time to go play" been going?

[HiFi Lounge]

Hey Butuz,

Very well thanks, these things really are quite awesome, done alot of demo's since getting them and everyones response is the same, they just can't believe how good Phantom is, especially when the bass comes in, I use London Grammar's 'Hey Now' a fair bit and when the bass kicks in everyones face is priceless :-)

Cheers,
Paul.
