Devialet presents Devialet Phantom Ultimate
Devialet presents Devialet Phantom Ultimate...
Introduced to the world in 2015, the Devialet Phantom speaker shattered expectations. Three years of R&D. 88 registered patents. A true reference in the world of high-fidelity audio was born.
A decade of innovation later, Devialet presents Devialet Phantom Ultimate — the heir to an icon. A new generation crafted to reveal every hidden detail in music, delivering pure high-resolution sound.
Evolution of the Revolution
Created by Devialet’s engineers and designers in Paris, this new evolution embodies the signature sound and technological excellence that have made the French acoustic engineering house world-renowned. A radically singular silhouette instantly draws the eye, striking in its timeless character.
Yet it’s the exceptional audio quality that truly sets Devialet Phantom Ultimate apart: vivid, immersive, full-body sound — pulsing with life. The most seamless immersive experience yet, it offers even greater precision and impact, along with expanded connectivity options. Devialet Phantom Ultimate turns listening into a physical sensation, bringing live performances and studio recordings to life in the home.
“Devialet is more ambitious than ever. With Devialet Phantom Ultimate, we reaffirm our status as a pioneer in the audio industry. This new era invites listeners to experience sound with unprecedented intensity, clarity, and depth. Behind this achievement lies engineering excellence — a true testament to our savoir-faire and expertise.”
Jacques Demont, CEO of Devialet
Sound. As Pure Emotion.
True to its mission, Devialet continues to capture the raw emotion of living sound — sound that vibrates, transports, and connects. Every innovation is born from a relentless pursuit of precision and purity: reproducing sound at its most dense, physical, and alive — to deliver nothing but pure emotion.
Working from Paris, Devialet’s engineers and designers have been inventing the future of sound for over fifteen years. Today, more than 250 patents protect Devialet’s radical innovations, spanning fields such as acoustic engineering, electronics, signal processing, mechanics, and cutting-edge manufacturing.
These proprietary technologies and iconic designs have made Devialet a defining force in high-end audio, shaping the inimitable acoustic signature of its creations — crafted for listening experiences like no other.
Design Icon.
Devialet Phantom Ultimate reiterates a visionary approach to design — one that balances timelessness with bold innovation. Inheriting the iconic aesthetic codes of Devialet Phantom, Devialet Phantom Ultimate refines its signature elongated silhouette into a statement of absolute purity and precision.
The removal of the woofer core cover on Devialet Phantom Ultimate 108 dB enhances visual seamlessness and accentuates presence. Achieving this sleek, uninterrupted form demanded a comprehensive rework of the speaker’s central core and assembly process — a bold illustration of Devialet’s relentless pursuit of harmony in form and function.
The tweeter grille, reimagined hand-in-hand by engineers and designers, now features cleaner lines and an optimised aperture. Six months of research and countless iterations were devoted to striking the perfect balance between aesthetics and acoustic performance.
Assuming an even more singular identity, Devialet Phantom Ultimate debuts in two new finishes that express radical boldness. Deep Forest presents a dark, organic tone — its side panels adorned with black chrome detailing that reveals subtle green reflections. Light Pearl, inspired by bisque ceramics, features a gentle ultra-matte, off-white hue.
More than a design centrepiece, Devialet Phantom Ultimate embodies a visual and acoustic signature — crafted for transformative listening experiences.
