After raising over €17 million and establishing global leadership in premium audio, Devialet expanded under Frank Lebouchard's leadership (CEO since 2018). Today's product portfolio includes Phantom speakers, Mania portable speakers, Gemini in-ear headphones, Dione soundbars, and Astra amplifiers. Based in Paris, Devialet combines French acoustical engineering excellence with innovative design, creating extraordinary audio experiences that restore sound's rightful place in modern life.
