There is more bass on the Devialet, but there is a huge price difference between this and the Helsinki. I'd say the mids and highs are very indistinguishable.
Wonderful video Toni... please can you compare this speaker vs B&O M5. And please (BITTE) make a frequency measurement of the M5, I’m really interested in the M5.
Dear Toni, I am confused to pick between the Sonos Play 5 Gen 2 and Devialet Phantom Reactor 900.Can you confirm the mids of the Reactor? Are they up to the mark ? And how does the Reactor stack up against the Gold Phantom Freq Response wise and Not the Power because the Golds have huge power. Apart from that is the reactor sound signature same as the golds ? Let me know please. Thanks
I've had my pair of 900W reactors for a few days now. The sound quality is mind blowing, but my right side reactor keeps dropping out and I have to reconnect very often. Its driving me crazy. Does anyone have any tips for maintaining a consistent stereo connection. I use a Bluetooth connection with my mobile to play music. Both reactors are plugged into the same wall socket and my network interface on both reactors is set to WI-FI. Ive tried Auto and PLC, they both drop out. Funny thing is, that its always my right side speaker that drops out, yet my Devialet app says the left side speaker is missing. Very strange. Any help would be much appreciated.
Shit when i'm listening to bury a friend i hear all bass notes of bass on my b&o mc120.2 (it's realy deep bass) and i can hear all bass notes from this devialet, damn it's good
Hey there Tony , any chance of seeing a review or comparison of Harman Kardon Citation 500 , JBL L16, B&O M5, Bose SoundTouch 30, B&W Zeppelin Wireless?
Hi Toni - it would be intesting to compare with one of your favourite speakers’ Beoplay M5’ In your last review of the larger Phantom the M5 kept up quite well 🎶🎵
Speaker Toni yeah... Reactor vs M5 is a good much. I personally would prefer the M5 for the looks and for the more spacious sound, and I guess the M5 is slightly louder. Bass wise I think the Reactior doesn’t win by much.
Vifa has a really linear, neutral sound, and devialet has the best bass because it's can go down to 30hz or under. It can make a much fuller, full bodied sound if the question is the bass. Vifa has stereo sound, devialet mono for this money either only... Good comparison because it's a good question. Definitely not the same price and category but i like it.
It really seems to depend on the song? 1st song Viva, 2nd song phantom for example. I have a pair of monitor audio golds on audition that sound fantastic with piano but horrible with classic rock. They are going back because I listen to rock more often but if all I did was listen to classical and piano I would look no further!🤪. The phantom was made for techno it seems. By the way that Billie Eilish song is fantastic sounding! Just put in my critical listening play list.👍😇. It seems for $200 Harman is a fantastic compromise and it’s portable!😱🤫😇
the measurement is done with loudness on ? because it doesn't look great and it's very unprecised in the bass, you should have tried without to give it one more chance
mich würde echt mal der Unterschied zwischen den 600er und dem 900er interessieren! Ob die sich nur in der Gesamtlautstärke unterscheiden oder auch im Tuning!? Zudem wäre natürlich ein Vergleich mit dem Vifa Oslo interessant :)
phantom sounds more muffled compared to the helsiniki, because it has more poreful deep bass but less refined/detailed treble.does not sound that clear and open like with the helsiniki. maybe because the big bass is overlaying the higher details somehow:D
@@speakertoni2680 Das schafft die Partybox von JBL auch. Klar, für die Größe des Devialet ist das Wahnsinn aber weit entfernt von den Herstellerangaben und 30hz gibt es schon für weniger als die Hälfte. Gibt es überhaupt einen Bluetooth Lautsprecher in der Preisklasse wie dieser Reactor der bis 25hz oder tiefer geht?
@@speakertoni2680 Würdest du ihn für das angegeben Geld empfehlen, quasi Preis/Leistungsverhältnis in Ordnung? Die großen Silver/Gold sind raus, zu preisintensive
Thanks for comparing it with onyx studio 5. I'm glad it doesnt lose in the bass. Btw my onyx failed to play this song, but my headphone played ok. I guess the phantom is similar. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-na6clL0y_yw.html
Bury A Friend was cool, I didn't know Billie Eilish. You seem to get around copyright more than others on RU-vid, & play interesting music. I know you're not a d.j. but speakers are about music after all.
the phantom is maybe worth 500€ max. compared to the harman kardon onyx studio. but not 1000€ wtf....for 1000€ I rather get a Vifa oslo or a fucking teufel rockster for a big party. 5x harman onyx studio 5 = 1x phantom reactor? thats not justified.
Maurice Yeah but two reactors in stereo would be a beast for the size. Of course you can get a much better hi-fi system for the price of those two, but it needs a lot of place in your room( my room isn’t big so I can’t place big speakers)
@@speakertoni2680 I know, but buy a cheap wooden sub, say off bk electronics with those small speakers, and it'll be better than this. The price these are is just ridiculous, I know there may be fancy electronics behind it but its basically a subwoofer with a speaker built in, impressive to demonstrate and perhaps to some people but it doesnt sound great like a high quality hi-fi speaker.
Eddie ugly in your opinion I like the design Also, you’re paying for that sound in a small package And again, I know many big subs/speakers for that price that will sound far worse than this
@@speakertoni2680 Not many, if theyre half decent speakers/subs it should not be difficult to better, and if it was a looker we'd all want it, we dont :) Yes looks can be as subjective as sound, but its just odd, and limited to where you could use it, standard speakers are more versatile. I had a demo with a room full of people against many much cheaper (but still decent) speakers and we all concluded the Devialet was the worst on the day.
Why anyone just talkes about the vifa? The HK destroys both of those Speakers together, when you compare the price with the Sound quality. Dont missunderstand me, there is a clear difference between the devialet and the hk. But that is to less in my eyes, to buy that non Portable speaker. And the for over 1000 Euros..that is a Hard Joke.
