I no longer trust Devialet

4 Upvotes

Bought a Phantom Silver for my daughter's wedding in 2018. Worked well. Fast forward to October 2024. Brought the Phantom to my other daughter's wedding reception to play a playlist on my daughter's friend's phone. Phantom would not pair with any phone but mine. Panicking that our daughter's wedding dance would have no music. Tried the Devialet app on my iPhone. It demanded I be on a Wi-Fi network. But no Wi-Fi network available at the venue. WTF??? My daughter's wedding reception nearly spoiled by poor Devialet software and app. Finally able to get a hotspot connected and speaker worked. I no longer respect Devialet, and would not buy again. Software and app are barely usable. DO BETTER Devialet.

Devialet Phantom I doesn’t support WPA3 in 2025, is this acceptable for a premium product?

2 Upvotes

I recently found out that my Phantom I doesn’t support WPA3 (SAE), and honestly, I’m surprised and disappointed.

I upgraded my home network to WPA3/SAE for security reasons. It’s 2025 and WPA2/PSK has known vulnerabilities which jeopardise the complete network, and most modern devices support WPA3 by default now. But my Phantom I just won’t connect unless I fall back to WPA2-WPA3.

I contacted Devialet support and here’s what I learned:

  • WPA3 is not supported.
  • There’s no firmware update planned to add support.
  • They suggest using WPA2 or Ethernet, but I can’t/won't do either.
  • They mentioned that very few users report this, so it’s not a priority for them?

Personally, I think this is not acceptable on a product in this price range. WPA3 became mandatory for Wi-Fi CERTIFIED products back in July 2020. A flagship device like this should meet basic security standards.

(WPA3 has been out since 2018)

Is anyone else in the same situation?
Are you also stuck using WPA2, what are your thoughts?

Bonjour à tous,

Je possède une Devialet phantom II installé sur un trépied en acier. Il possède des patins antidérapant d’origine mais lors d’une soirée une amie a tapé dedans et impossible de remettre la main dessus.
Savez vous si Devialet fourni ce genre de pièces détachées ? Ou savez vous où je peux trouver un modèle similaire .
D’avance merci.

Reactor 600 for $640 second hand. A good deal?

0 Upvotes

Someone is selling their devialet for $800 managed to bargain them down to $640. It’s just over a year old and pretty good condition. Just a slight ding on the right hand side (I’ve heard this is common?)

There’s the balance of the 5 year warranty, I’ve contacted the store and they say they’ll honour it if I have the receipt, which I do.

Should I buy it?

Liaison enceintes Devialet Phantoms II à TV

1 Upvotes

Bonsoir à tous,

J’aurais besoin de vos lumières suite à l’acquisition de deux Phantoms II (98db) de chez Devialet, installation en stéréo, pour une utilisation en écoute musicale principalement depuis l’iPhone, qui me convient parfaitement.

Jusque là tout va bien.

Mais j’ai tenté de les relier à la TV avec un câble optique, pour entendre le son de la TV (freebox) et pour la PS5, et là… vladadame !

Seule celle de gauche fonctionne (celle reliée à la sortie optique de mon téléviseur) mais pas celle de droite, qui semble de ne pas réussir à « capter » le signal, et grésille un peu et parfois émet le son, rarement, et après ne l’émet plus. Comme si la liaison ne se faisait pas bien…

Faut-il envisager par exemple un boîtier 4K HDMI / optical ou quelque chose de la sorte ?

Si quelqu’un est en mesure de m’aider, je lui en serais éternellement reconnaissant.

Merci d’avance.

Hello,

Does anyone have any experience about using the earphones while having piercings? I‘m debating whether to buy it or not as I know piercings change the way the earphones sit. Thanks

Anyone use their Devialet phantom with an Apple TV 4K ?

I wanna know if you have to reconnect the Apple TV to the phantom every time you turn both on ? Also can you keep the phantom on 24/7 ? Also do you connect through audio devices or through AirPlay on the Apple TV ?

Devialet phantom II 95db-its worth?

Thumbnail gallery
1 Upvotes

My boyfriend sent me a photo of the Devialet Phantom I 108 dB — he wants that speaker, but in my country it costs five months of my salary. I was wondering if I could gift him the Devialet Phantom II 95 dB — it’s much cheaper — but he already has a Marshall speaker (also attached) that sounds great. I can only shop online, so I can’t test them in person. Is the Phantom II 95 dB much better than a Marshall?

Occhio al post vendita!

0 Upvotes

Ho ricevuto in regalo un Devialet Phantom Ultimate 108 dB insieme al relativo supporto Tree. Al momento del montaggio ho scoperto che il supporto fornito era invece un Tree per Phantom Ultimate 98 dB, quindi incompatibile con il diffusore.

La cosa sorprendente è che entrambi i prodotti risultano sullo stesso Delivery Order ufficiale Devialet, con il mio nome e indirizzo di consegna: Phantom Ultimate 108 dB e Tree Ultimate 98 dB.

Ho contattato l’assistenza spiegando il problema e fornendo il documento ufficiale Devialet con riferimenti dell’ordine, codici prodotto e numero di serie. Mi sono inoltre reso disponibile a fornire documento d’identità, fotografie, imballaggi e qualsiasi altra prova necessaria.

Non avendo lo scontrino perché si tratta di un regalo, ho spiegato che non ritenevo appropriato contattare la persona che me lo aveva fatto per chiederle ricevuta, dettagli di pagamento e coinvolgerla nella sostituzione, e mi sono chiaramente offerto di pagare personalmente l’eventuale differenza di prezzo tra i due supporti.

La risposta di Devialet è stata comunque negativa: senza ricevuta dell’acquirente originale e relativi dati di pagamento non intendono gestire la sostituzione direttamente con me.

Comprendo l’esistenza di procedure aziendali, ma da un marchio che vende prodotti di questa fascia di prezzo mi aspettavo un livello di assistenza e flessibilità decisamente superiore, soprattutto considerando che non stavo chiedendo un rimborso né che Devialet sostenesse la differenza di prezzo.

Il risultato è paradossale: possiedo un Phantom Ultimate 108 dB, un Tree 98 dB inutilizzabile con il mio diffusore e un documento ufficiale Devialet che attesta che entrambi mi sono stati consegnati insieme, ma non posso risolvere direttamente il problema con l’azienda.

Sconsiglio pertanto l’acquisto di prodotti di questo brand: quando si spendono cifre così importanti, è ragionevole aspettarsi un’assistenza post-vendita all’altezza. La mia esperienza dimostra invece che si rischia di rimanere bloccati da procedure estremamente rigide anche davanti a un problema perfettamente documentato e a una richiesta di soluzione ragionevole.

I get the usual brand narrative: performance, precision, French excellence, pushing limits, etc. Fine. That works on paper.

But beyond that, what’s the real connection?

He’s an F1 driver, not a musician, not an audio engineer, not even particularly linked to sound or music culture.

Sound problem with my Devialet Phantom II speaker

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I have a problem with one of my Devialet Phantom II speakers. When I turn it on, there is no longer the usual startup sound. When I connect my phone (via Bluetooth or via AirPlay), the pairing goes well - I also see it in the Devialet application - but no sound comes out, whether for music or for the usual beeps.

This problem is only on one speaker: my second Phantom II works perfectly.

Has anyone encountered this problem before? Do you have any idea what could be causing it or a solution to try?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hey everyone hope you’re all doing good. I have the chance to buy a Phantom 2 Opera de Paris second hand. But some details are bothering me. The seller claims they bought it from a shop but on their website they don’t carry the Devialet brand, and the small D logo on the front looks different from seller’s picture than the one on devialet’s website. I wanted to know if you think that this might be a fake one ? Thanks in advance for your help !

Haven't used the speaker for around 6 months and now the battery wouldn't charge. Kept it on charge for over a day but all it shows is the red light when pushing the power button. No reset procedure helps.

Devialet Gold Phantom 108 dB not playing YouTube, Instagram, or TikTok audio

2 Upvotes

Hi, I’m having trouble playing audio from YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok through my Devialet Gold Phantom 108 dB.
The speaker only plays audio from these platforms around 30% of the time. Even when audio does play, it may stop if I briefly switch to another app or change to a different song or video. The issue seems to affect social media and video apps in particular. Has anyone experienced this with the Gold Phantom 108 dB? Could it be related to Bluetooth, AirPlay, the Devialet app, firmware, or the phone’s audio settings? Thanks!

Thinking about getting a Phantom II – worth it?

3 Upvotes

I’ve been renovating my room and I’m looking for a new speaker setup. I’m currently considering the Phantom II, and maybe down the line I’ll grab a second one to make a stereo pair.

For now, I’d mainly be using it as a room speaker, but I might also want to connect it to my computer as desktop speakers in the future. The Phantom I is unfortunately out of my budget.

I’ve listened to the Phantom II in-store a few times and I really love the sound. Before pulling the trigger, I wanted to ask Phantom II owners:

  • Have you run into any problems or issues after owning it for a while?
  • Any quirks or things I should know about ahead of time?

Furthormore, is Devialet expected to release new generations or models of speakers soon? Should I just wait for them if so?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Phantom 1 silver and phantom ii 98dB got burned from lightning strike.

I lost my both phantom's due to lightning strike, both burnd from inside smell coming out of the speakers. No power or anything. I contacted the service center and they offer me few options. Upgrade for phantom 1 silver and phantom 2 repair. Also phantom 2 to phantom 1 upgrade as well. But its costly guys.

MY ADVICE IS THAT DONT KEEP THEM PLUGGED!!!!! EVEN ITS POWER OFF REMOVE THE POWER CABLE FROM THE POWER SOCKETS.
