Devialet has disrupted the world of high end audio with its Bluetooth speaker, the Gold Phantom, which produces a quality of sound that will make you weep
DEVIALET IS AN iconoclast. How else could you explain a Paris-headquartered audio company, a little over a decade into its existence, producing Bluetooth speakers with a sound quality that can rival (and arguably eclipse) $40,000 competitors?
Devialet isn’t peddling mere rhetoric when it says that it’s built one of the best speakers in the world. It’s a demonstrable fact with the flagship Gold Phantom model that has a sound range spanning 14Hz at the bass end to 27kHz at the treble extreme – well beyond the capacity of the human ear. But saying that Devialet is constructing audio systems limited by human capacity is really missing the point.
The 4500W speaker can produce 108db, the level of sound you'll hear if you're standing on the runway around 300m away from a jet taking off. It’s a potent combination of statistics that no other speaker in the world can match today. Period.
Crank up the bass and there’s plenty of visual entertainment with those side-firing woofers, which anthropomorphise the speaker. You can also get two or more speakers and hook them up via an app, which also delivers device updates.
