Phantom Ultimate 98dB Wireless Speaker
Description
The Evolution of the Revolution.
When the original Devialet Phantom speaker was born in 2015, it shattered expectations. Enter Devialet Phantom Ultimate 98 dB, a feat of sound born of the Devialet Phantom Ultimate range, that brings you closer to the music you love.
Signature Sound, Compact Form.
Anointed by Devialet’s signature sound, seamless stereo pairing, and performance-driven design, every note resonates exactly as the artist intended.
Full Body Sound Technology.
Devialet Phantom 98 dB speaker transforms sound into a full-body experience in a ultra-compact form. Every Devialet innovation is driven by the will to connect body, mind, and music. Featuring Devialet’s latest-generation Analog Digital Hybrid (ADH®) amplification and improved bandwidth, Devialet Phantom Ultimate 98 dB is able to reproduce music with the utmost precision—free from distortion, saturation, or background noise. With 32 bit / 96 kHz audio processing and a 18 Hz – 25 kHz frequency range, every detail—from ethereal whispers to electrifying basslines—resonates in the body.
Whether a studio recording or a live set, Devialet’s signature high-resolution sound draws you into the music like never before.
Timeless sophistication, meet cutting-edge design.
Designed and manufactured in France, Devialet Phantom Ultimate 98 dB speaker epitomizes French innovation and craftsmanship in every sense.
Each is designed in Paris and assembled in a state-of-the-art facility in France, originally built exclusively for Devialet Phantom. And each undergoes a meticulous process that combines advanced machinery with the irreplaceable human touch, ensuring it meets Devialet’s high acoustic and aesthetic standards.
Listen Your Way.
A refined and robust software architecture has arrived. Beneath the surface, Devialet Phantom Ultimate speaker brings together an NXP iMX8 processor and the latest Devialet Operating System, DOS3, so you can cue your music with ease.
Enjoy seamless integration with high-resolution streaming protocols like AirPlay, Google Cast, Roon, Spotify Connect UPnP and TIDAL Connect. Connectivity goes even further with Bluetooth® 5.3 and Wi-Fi 6, delivering ultra-low latency, enhanced stability, and multi-device streaming.
The experience enhancement continues through to the Devialet App with unrivalled personalization options. A six-band equalizer finetunes audio rendering, and three dedicated audio modes for different listening sound experiences:
Music Mode: Your music, as the artist intended.
Movie Mode: In-theater sound, at-home comfort.
Podcast Mode: Each episode, like it’s recorded from your living room.
And listeners can further fine-tune their experience with Bass Reducer for limiting sub-bass effects, Loudness for improved acoustic compensation at low levels, and Adaptive Volume Level (AVL™) for control over audio dynamics.
Some of the Devialet core technologies in action
ADH – Analog Digital Hybrid
Analog, Meet Digital
Devialet ADH® (Analog Digital Hybrid) next-gen technology achieves the best of both worlds, delivering sound in its most electrifying form—all while consuming less power and reaching crystal-clear frequencies up to 35 kHz.
HBI – Heart Bass Implosion
Bass You Feel In Your Bones
HBI® (Heart Bass Implosion) pushes the boundaries of infra-bass, reaching depths as profound as 14 Hz within an extremely compact form. Two perfectly synchronized lateral woofers thrust in unison, eliminating unwanted vibrations—for pure impact.
SAM – Speaker Active Matching
As the Artist Intended Devialet SAM® (Speaker Active Matching) software adapts in real time to both transient and steady-state signals, enabling Devialet Phantom Ultimate 108 dB to reproduce phase and amplitude with razor-sharp precision.
AVL – Adaptive Volume Level
Don’t Miss A Single Detail
Devialet’s Adaptive Volume Level (AVL™) technology uses real-time dynamic equalization to deliver a smoother, more balanced listening experience. From explosive action to whispered dialogue, nothing is lost on you.
See the Movement.
When Devialet Phantom Ultimate awakens, you don’t just hear it: you see it. Beneath its seamless domes, a force is unleashed, propelling sound with unrelenting power. Press play, and the woofers ignite a hypnotic movement, pulsing with the energy of every note. This is precision engineering at its best; raw intensity and sculpted elegance dancing in fusion. Hidden within, convex woofer membranes amplify pressure and volume, pushing the limits of immersion. An acoustic and visual experience so powerful, it doesn’t just fill the room. It shakes you to the core.
Music That Moves You, At The Touch of a Button.
Devialet Phantom Ultimate 98 dB comes complete with four intuitive touch controls for a tactile and intuitive listening experience: volume up, volume down, play/pause, and Bluetooth®. And an LED light on its top indicates your speaker’s status: off, booting (flashing), and on (solid white).
The Devialet App:
your sound, your way.
Power this unreasonable requires some control. Set up your Phantom, finetune your settings, and stay up to date, all via the Devialet App. An intuitive companion, the app lets you customize your Phantom experience: setting up your Phantom, adjusting latency for A/V, activating Standby Mode or customizing bass for Night Mode.
