Devialet Partners with Roland-Garros on Exclusive Limited Edition Phantom Speaker

Two iconic French houses unite on a limited-edition Phantom Ultimate speaker, finished in signature clay red as a tribute to Court Philippe-Chatrier — available in just a few hundred pieces worldwide.

 

PARIS, May 6, 2026  – Devialet, the French acoustic engineering company, announced a new partnership with Roland-Garros, the iconic French tennis championship. To mark the collaboration, Devialet is introducing the limited-edition Phantom Ultimate Roland-Garros Exclusive Edition featuring a clay red finish inspired by the tournament’s signature clay courts.

Limited to a few hundred pieces, the speaker blends Devialet’s high-performance technology and brings the emotion of the legendary venue to life through full-body sound, a refined palette of warm ochre tones, and the iconic Roland-Garros logo. 

PERFORMANCE AND EMOTION. SERVED.
The partnership brings together two ambassadors of French craftsmanship on the international stage. Between Roland-Garros, the global benchmark for clay-court tennis, and Devialet, pioneer of acoustic engineering, the collaboration was a natural fit: two Paris-born institutions founded on the pursuit of excellence.

Beyond this shared heritage, a philosophy of absolute performance binds the two Houses. On the court as in acoustic laboratories, every detail matters. The precision of play finds its counterpart in the purity of sound quality reproduced by Devialet Phantom Ultimate. This technological mastery is matched by a shared aesthetic sensibility: the world of Roland-Garros, with its relaxed elegance and organic hues, lives in every design element, transforming the speaker into a true collector’s piece.

Jacques Demont, Chief Executive Officer of Devialet, states: “This partnership with Roland-Garros marks a natural step for our two Houses, both driven by a shared ambition to express our vision of French excellence on the international stage, placing emotion in sport as in sound — at the heart of every experience.”

A TRIBUTE TO THE PHILIPPE-CHATRIER COURT.
The Devialet Phantom Ultimate Roland-Garros Exclusive Edition retains its iconic oblong silhouette conceived for uncompromising performance within a compact form — while its aesthetic evolves into a true narrative of victory.

The visual signature of the side panels has been reimagined to celebrate the tournament’s most emblematic aesthetic codes. Devialet’s designers chose to render the reflection of Court Philippe-Chatrier on the silver of the Coupe des Mousquetaires, crystallizing the emotion of a defining moment, as the trophy is presented. The result is a delicate interplay between the depth and warmth of ochre clay and the purity of the white lines that define the court. This meticulous work relies on laser-engraved white lines, coated with several coats of high-gloss lacquer that lend the edition its distinctive radiance.

At the top of the speaker, the official Roland-Garros logo seals this exclusive collaboration applied through a multi-layer pad-printing process

TECHNOLOGICAL EXCELLENCE, DRIVING EMOTION.
Beneath its iconic design, the Devialet Phantom Ultimate Roland-Garros Exclusive Edition range is powered by the proprietary technologies that have made the French acoustic engineering specialist world-renowned. It is available in two performance levels:

Phantom Ultimate Roland-Garros Exclusive Edition 108dB

Devialet Phantom Ultimate 108 dB | Roland-Garros – Clay Red: Uncompromising amplitude. Delivering 1,100 W of amplification, it covers a spectrum from 14 Hz to 35 kHz. Its 32-bit / 96 kHz audio processing ensures a high-resolution experience with absolute clarity.

Devialet Phantom Ultimate 108 dB | Roland Garros – Clay Red: The perfect blend of compactness and fidelity. With 400 W of power, it delivers an extremely precise soundstage (18 Hz – 25 kHz), faithful to the artist’s original intent.

PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY.
At the core of these speakers live the innovations that define Devialet:

– ADH® new-gen (Analog Digital Hybrid): A cornerstone of the brand’s heritage, this hybrid technology combines the linearity of Analog (Class A) with the power and compactness of Digital (Class D). This new generation achieves rare levels of finesse in high frequencies while optimizing energy efficiency and heat dissipation.

– SAM® (Speaker Active Matching): A cutting-edge algorithm ensuring absolute fidelity by adapting the signal to the drivers in real-time, reproducing the phase and amplitude of sound waves with flawless precision.

– HBI® (Heart Bass Implosion): An engineering feat capable of emitting infra-bass frequencies as low as 14 Hz, for truly physical impact.

– AVL™ (Adaptive Volume Level): Inherited from the Devialet Dione soundbar, this technology adjusts volume in real-time for a consistently balanced listening experience, regardless of the content.

THE CORE OF PERFORMANCE
Devialet Phantom Ultimate features the new NXP i.MX 8M Nano intelligent processor. This System on a Chip (SoC) combines energy efficiency with increased computing power for advanced audio processing and instantaneous responsiveness.

ELEVATED USER EXPERIENCE.

Devialet Phantom Ultimate introduces a completely redesigned interface, placing personalization at the heart of the listening experience. Equipped with the new Devialet DOS3 operating system—first introduced with the Devialet Astra amplifier—Devialet Phantom Ultimate features a unique software environment designed to integrate future creations within a unified interface. This new architecture supports all current streaming protocols (AirPlay, Google Cast, Roon Ready, Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, Qobuz Connect, UPnP) for total freedom of use.

A true control center, the Devialet App has been redefined to offer dedicated audio modes for every type of content. In Music mode, users benefit from a reproduction faithful to the artist’s intent, while Podcast mode ensures crystal-clear vocal clarity. The Cinema configuration, meanwhile, plunges the listener into the heart of the action, recreating the immersion of a real movie theater.

For the most demanding listeners, a new six-band equalizer allows for precise frequency adjustments. Bass Reducer and Loudness features complete this toolkit, offering total control over bass intensity and optimal acoustic compensation, even at low volumes.

Finally, this interface guarantees the speaker’s continuous evolution through direct access to updates and future features.

Devialet Phantom Ultimate Roland Garros Exclusive Edition range will be available in select Devialet stores, on devialet.com, as well as at the Roland-Garros Megastore and on boutique.rolandgarros.com.

Launching on May 6, 2026. Prices: €3,500 / £3,050 / $4,200 for the 108 dB model, and €1,700 / £1,550 / $2,100 for the 98 dB version.
