Anyone following the threads on the devialet phantoms? The claims from such a small enclosure including amplifier, dac and wifi is amazing. Devialet seem to really be changing things around in the hifi world.

Yes indeed, I can't wait to hear them. Hard to gauge what they REALLY sound like based on the blurbs I've read, and I can't figure out yet whether it's proper audiophile stuff or party trick. Given Devialet's level of cred I'd expect the former, but time will tell.

+1 Ran out of the room gruesome stuff I couldn't understand all the positive comments that emanated from the Scalford show for that room.
Are they really not just a lifestyle product? The amps seem to be the real deal but couldn't offer an opinion on them as I have never heard them.
Davef moved it on to quickly!
