Each speaker driver unit is composed of an aluminum membrane with a high field neodymium magnet, providing excellent sensitivity and complementing the electroacoustic and mechanical characteristics of the soundbar.
Devialet Intelligence Processor
DEVIALET DIONE is powered by the Devialet intelligence Processor, which is Devialet’s patented audio system on a chip (SoC) and what makes up PHANTOM award-winning sound.
This unique audio SoC combines Devialet’s amplification and signal processing technologies (ADH®, SAM®, Magic Wire, Class A, DAC) into a single 1 cm² silicon die, preserving the extreme performance level of the ADH® amplification (Total Harmonic Distorsion of 0,001%), while reducing the size of the hardware components by a factor of 200 and power consumption by a factor of 10.
Thanks to this, distortion and amplification are optimized for flawless listening at any volume without any saturation or hiss.
Room Calibration Software
DEVIALET DIONE comes with the ability to scan and tune its rendering to the room it is placed in.
This custom software takes into consideration multiple acoustic parameters that might impact the audio quality such as room size, walls, furniture, layout, and the placement of the soundbar inside the room to create an accurate representation of the surrounding space. Then, by playing different echoes and frequency sweeps, DEVIALET DIONE will intelligently tune the sound output to the acoustic model of the room, so that the soundbar sounds as good as possible wherever it is.
The room calibration scan can be conducted at any time from the application settings. The internal microphones used for acoustic scanning can also be deactivated by pressing the microphone button located on the soundbar control panel.
Dynamic Equalisation with AVL™DEVIALET DIONE also features AVL™ (Adaptative Volume Level), a unique dynamic equalizer that harmonizes sound levels in real-time depending on the content being played. This signal processing technology works by analyzing the signal upstream and making sure to homogenize the loudness of the multiple sounds that make up a movie scene such as dialogues, sound effects, and music, bringing key audible benefits such as :
— Smoother listening → avoiding movie scenes bouncing from too quiet to too loud
— Reinforcing clearness → fixing quiet or unintelligible dialog in an action scene
— Improved soundstage → better highlighting the different audio object in the scene
With AVL™, DEVIALET DIONE offers a new way to enjoy and rediscover the magic of cinema at home without missing a single detail.
5.1.2 Audio channels
DEVIALET DIONE is an advanced multichannel sound system, using 8 high-definition audio channels to create enveloping 3-dimensional effects and expand the width of the soundstage.
The 8 audio channels are configured in a 5.1.2 layout with advanced channel splitting depending on the soundbar orientation (horizontally on a shelf or vertically on a wall).
Dolby Atmos® for 3D cinematic soundDEVIALET DIONE is natively compatible with the Dolby Atmos® format, using the latest innovations in multichannel and object-based audio. Originally designed for the film industry, Dolby Atmos® delivers layered 3D sound from above, taking the viewer's experience into a 3-dimensional space.
Dolby Atmos® is used by filmmakers in the mixing stage to place sounds and voices at exact points in the soundstage rather than simply assign them to specific channels. With Dolby Atmos®, DEVIALET DIONE can distribute sounds in space with 3D effects that make the listener perceive airplanes as if they were flying overhead or hearing every friction in the cornfield during a thrilling chase down.
DEVIALET DIONE features two elevation audio channels to extend the soundstage and accurately reproduce sounds coming from above the listener with the use of Dolby Atmos® metadata.
Upmixing with Devialet SPACE™
Embedded inside DEVIALET DIONE state-of-the-art signal processing stage, the Devialet SPACE™ technology leverages the full potential of the soundbar’s 17 speakers by upscaling any signal into a thrilling 5.1.2 multichannel content.
SPACE™ upmixing algorithms are used through several listening modes to finetune DEVIALET DIONE’S acoustic capabilities and enhance the viewing and listening experience.
— Movie Mode actively converts stereo content into a full-fledged multichannel experience when connected via the HDMI and Optical inputs.
— Spatial Mode transforms stereo tracks into layered 3-dimensional sound when used with any wireless audio source (AirPlay 2, Bluetooth, Spotify Connect, and UPnP) to place the listener center stage and enjoy music and other content at their best.
— Voice Mode boosts accuracy and intelligibility on programs like podcasts and news.
— Music Mode faithfully reproduces a stereo setup and disables all spatialization effects.
Movie is turned on by default on the HDMI/Optical input and Music Mode for every online source. Spatial and Voice Mode can be turned on at any time using the Devialet application.
Directional audio with ADE®
DEVIALET DIONE also features the Advanced Dimensional Experience (ADE®) patented technology. This innovation was specifically designed for DEVIALET DIONE, it combines ingenious speaker placement detection and advanced digital filters to deliver superior multichannel audio restitution through the use of beamforming techniques.
Beamforming has been studied as a signal processing technology in diverse areas like wireless communication and seismology to enhance the broadcast of a signal in a specific direction and limit its contamination from other directions.
For multichannel audio broadcasting, Devialet ADE® technology uses beamforming from a spatial point of view:DEVIALET DIONE relies on a dedicated speaker array to create a Spatio-temporal filter which effectively boosts the amplitude of sound waves coming from a specific angle (through constructive interference) and rejects sound waves from elsewhere (through destructive interference).
In effect, ADE® allows DEVIALET DIONE to optimize the surround and elevation audio channels broadcast and reflection according to the position of the soundbar (either horizontal or mounted vertically on a wall).For the listener, this maximizes the impact and immersion of multichannel content at all times, no matter the position of the soundbar, while delivering superior audio all around.
HDMI 2.1 eARC/CEC & TOSLINK Optical Audio
DEVIALET DIONE comes equipped with a modern HDMI 2.1 eARC port using the latest version of the HDMI® specification to support the most advanced audio formats and highest audio quality.
eARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel) is the next generation of ARC (Audio Return Channel), it enables DEVIALET DIONE to receive the original full-resolution audio signal in lossless formats and at the highest bit rate possible. The HDMI eARC input is backward compatible, so it can be used with earlier versions of the HDMI ARC specification without any issue.
The HDMI 2.1 eARC input also features CEC (Consumer Electronics Control), giving the user the ability to control the soundbar and the TV with a single remote controller.
Additionally to the HDMI input, DEVIALET DIONE comes with a TOSLINK Optical input to receive digital audio streams from TVs and other audio components.
It is important to note that given the high bandwidth of object-based audio format, it is necessary to use the HDMI input to enjoy Dolby Atmos® content.
Here is a recap of the different audio formats and required input :
