Devialet identifies software and AI as key drivers in premium audio

Devialet, the French premium audio company, is seeing a shift in the industry where software and signal processing are becoming as critical as traditional hardware components like amplifiers and drivers.

Speaking during the launch of the Devialet Phantom Ultimate 98 dB – Pulse Blue in India, Henri Herve noted that while hardware remains a core differentiator, the rise of smartphone-centric listening is making software an inherent part of modern audio products. The company utilizes several proprietary technologies, including ADH New-Gen for hybrid amplification, SAM for real-time signal adaptation, and HBI for low-frequency reproduction, to maintain its competitive edge in an increasingly connected and complex wireless landscape.
