Developed exclusively for the Phantom, HBI, or Heart Bass Implosion, lets you feel infrabass frequencies all the way down to 14 Hz. Engineered to perform under extreme constraints, the Phantom’s hermetically sealed architecture consists of two lateral woofers. When cued, they begin to dance in sync, creating opposing forces that cancel out even the slightest vibrations and generate ultra-dense sound, the kind your bones perceive before your ears. That’s why you feel immersed in the Phantom: because you are, from head to toe.

SAM, or Speaker Active Matching, is a software algorithm designed to deliver extreme fidelity throughout playback while protecting your speaker. Whether you are dealing with transient or steady-state signals, SAM is able to process more information than previously thought possible. This enables the Phantom to reproduce the exact tempo of your music, at all frequencies. All of it, with absolute precision. So that you can experience every last emotion, just as the artist intended.

The Phantom’s elegant curves are guided by acoustics over design. Inspired by Harry Ferdinand Olson’s pulsating sphere principle, the Phantom’s ACE, or Active Cospherical Engine, radically optimizes the way sound waves form and travel. Instead of projecting in the classic 180° arc like traditional box speakers, Phantom achieves a 360° soundstage, emitting evenly and in all directions for perfectly balanced sound and zero surface diffraction. Whatever the listening angle.

When it comes to aesthetics and engineering, Devialet are purists. Extreme simplicity is a complex process, but they thrive in a good challenge. So when designing Phantom, they started at the beginning, at its purpose: to deliver sound in its purest form. In crafting the Phantom’s overall look, Devialet focused on function and an obsessive attention to detail. Some call it French savoir-faire and art de vivre. They view this as honoring craftsmanship and pleasure equally. Beyond its iconic spherical shape, the Phantom also offers a range of colors, materials, and finishes that can stand out or blend in. You now have every excuse to treat yourself to the music you love.
