Devialet Phantom Ultimate: The Next Evolution in Iconic Sound

A decade after redefining high-fidelity audio, Devialet has unveiled the Phantom Ultimate: a bold new generation of its legendary Phantom speaker. First launched in 2015 after three years of R&D and 88 patents, Phantom became a reference point in high-end sound. Now, Phantom Ultimate takes that revolution further, fusing French acoustic mastery with visionary design.

Crafted in Paris by Devialet’s engineers and designers, Phantom Ultimate delivers vivid, high-resolution sound with unmatched precision and impact. Every detail, whether in a live performance or studio recording, is revealed with lifelike clarity, turning listening into a visceral, full-body experience.

Radical Design Meets Timeless Aesthetics

Phantom Ultimate refines the iconic silhouette of the original Phantom into a sleeker, more seamless form. Highlights include:

  • A redesigned woofer core and assembly for flawless visual purity.
  • A new tweeter grille optimized for both aesthetics and acoustics.
  • Two bold new finishes: Deep Forest, a dark organic tone with black chrome detailing, and Light Pearl, inspired by bisque ceramics with an ultra-matte off-white sheen.
  • A returning Opéra de Paris edition, gilded with 22-carat gold by Ateliers Gohard, the artisans behind the restoration of Palais Garnier.

Power, Precision, and Proprietary Tech

Phantom Ultimate integrates Devialet’s proprietary technologies, including:

  • ADH (Analog Digital Hybrid) New Gen for ultra-precise high frequencies up to 35 kHz.
  • SAM (Speaker Active Matching) for real-time fidelity and loudspeaker protection.
  • HBI (Heart Bass Implosion) delivering earth-shaking bass down to 14 Hz.
  • AVL (Adaptive Volume Level) for cinema-grade dynamic adaptation.

At its core is a new NXP i.MX 8M Nano processor, ensuring advanced audio processing with energy efficiency, alongside seamless streaming via AirPlay, Google Cast, Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, Roon Ready, and UPnP.

A Reimagined User Experience

Running on the latest Devialet OS (DOS3), Phantom Ultimate offers intuitive control through the redesigned Devialet App, featuring:

  • Tailored listening modes (Music, Podcast, Cinema).
  • A new six-band equalizer, bass reducer, and loudness compensation.
  • Over-the-air updates for continuous evolution.

Two Performance Levels

  • Phantom Ultimate 108 dB – 1,100 W of power, frequency range 14 Hz–35 kHz, priced at SG$4,999 (Deep Forest & Light Pearl) and SG$6,099 (Opéra de Paris).
  • Phantom Ultimate 98 dB – 400 W of power, frequency range 18 Hz–25 kHz, priced at SG$2,399 (Deep Forest & Light Pearl) and SG$2,999 (Opéra de Paris).

Both models support solo, stereo, or multi-room configurations, enhanced with Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3 for seamless connectivity.
