If you're a multi-millionaire looking to listen to some music, chances are you may end up buying something made by French audio hardware manufacturer Devialet. The company was founded in France in 2007, and started off producing high-end audio hardware that rich people put in their music studios. Devialet's previous flagship product, the D-Premier, sells for around £12,000.
But now, Devialet has launched a new product: The Phantom speaker. It's a giant spherical speaker, which Devialet sells for £1,390 and up. Devialet has packed a lot into that sphere, though, and it claims that the Phantom speaker is "the best music equipment in the world."
Founders: Pierre-Emmanuel Calmel, Emmanuel Nardin, Quentin Sannié, Manuel de la Fuente and Mathias Moronvalle
