And i will say that Phantom is not an audiophile product ...!!
I bought the phantoms because I wanted to keep it simple. in that aspect, the phantoms are unbeatable. but if failed to impress me with the sound in the long run, except for the clean bass. may be its the room, may be its me. but the product is selling in numbers which suggest its a good product. wrong me then! the devialet/pmc combo is much more pleasing and it is simple enough. And i find that it actually needs only the same number of cables as the phantoms.
I heard the KEF LS50 wireless in a different store. that was my only other considered option. i thought the KEFs had a better mid range, but overall it sounded like it was playing at its limits regarless of the volume. it was not a fair comparison as both were in 2 different rooms and the KEF is less than half the money. in retorspect, i think i desired the phantoms more than the sound then. eventually regretted.
The phantom being completely digital, there is no DAC needed. uses inbuilt dac. there is no analogue input either.
