Devialet unveils Phantom Ultimate CI speakers with native Dante networking

French audio specialist Devialet announced the Phantom Ultimate CI series, a new line of active speakers designed for custom‑installation projects. The range includes two models – a 98 dB version and a more powerful 108 dB version – that connect directly to an Ethernet switch and use Audinate’s native Dante protocol for uncompressed audio over IP. Each speaker supports up to 128 input and 128 output channels and can be managed via a browser‑based interface and open IP API.

The speakers target high‑end multi‑room, home‑cinema and commercial installations, offering integration with major control platforms such as Crestron, Savant, Control4, RTI and NICE/ELAN. They will be showcased at CEDIA 2026 in Denver and come with a five‑year professional warranty.
