To recap

If you want your music to sound as space-age awesome as the Reactor looks, this ‘mini Phantom’ from Devialet is a sure-fire way to acquire exquisite audio. The obvious problem is its four-figure price tag - but given it outputs low-end bass well beyond anything we’ve ever seen at this scale, for some that asking price will be fully worth it.
