What reviewers think
Bloggers and YouTubers have tried this product—so we've summarized their strongest opinions below. Links to full reviews follow.
What are hifi reviews useful for? (1) Identifying products you should demo in person at a dealer. (2) Learning which products reviewers unanimously praise as the best they've heard (this means they probably are legitimately great). (3) Identifying a product's attributes that satisfy your idiosyncratic needs and tastes. Beyond that, we often discount what reviewers say because they heap praise on most products—and are often apprehensive about publishing strong criticism or comparisons between products. Further, they seldom have more than a few products on-hand, often relying on their memories to compare past products. Always listen for yourself.

Select product comparisons
8.0 MINI ELLIPSE BOLLARD:
- Positioning: A compact outdoor 2-way speaker designed for flexible installations.
- Description: Offers a 6.5-inch woofer paired with a pivoting 1-inch titanium tweeter for efficient and discreet outdoor audio performance with a broad 120° dispersion angle. Compared to larger offerings in the lineup like the 3-Way Ellipse and Line Source, it provides a cost-effective solution ideal for small spaces and basic functionality needs.
CONTOUR:
- Positioning: The entry-level outdoor speaker that emphasizes versatile installation in various landscapes.
- Description: Features a custom coaxial driver with a fractal wave guide that improves efficiency in a compact one-piece composite enclosure. When compared to premium products such as the 3-Way Ellipse and Line Source, its design prioritizes ease of integration and affordability over higher power handling and advanced driver configurations.
PATHFINDER:
- Positioning: A mid-range, omni-directional outdoor speaker focused on installer-centric flexibility and complete outdoor coverage.
- Description: Uses a patented acoustic suspension system and a unique design with dual full-range drivers and passive radiators to deliver consistent 30W performance from a compact form. In contrast to the simplicity of Contour and the more driver-intensive setups of the Ellipse Bollards and Line Source, it is optimized for filling larger outdoor areas with balanced sound while maintaining flexible mounting options.
10.0 3-WAY ELLIPSE BOLLARD:
- Positioning: A premium outdoor 3-way speaker engineered for bi-amplified, full-range sound in demanding installations.
- Description: Integrates separate satellite and subwoofer sections with dedicated Hi-Pass and Lo-Pass filters to achieve refined frequency control and deeper bass response. Compared to the simpler 8.0 Mini Ellipse and entry-level Contour models, it offers enhanced performance with higher power handling and a more sophisticated multi-driver configuration.
LINE SOURCE:
- Positioning: A flagship, high-performance outdoor line array system designed for long throw distances and uncompromised fidelity.
- Description: Features groundbreaking variable waveguide technology and a proprietary four-layer laminar flow grill system that protect drivers and direct sound with exceptional clarity and volume. When compared to the localized dispersion of Bollard speakers like the 3-Way Ellipse and Mini Ellipse, it delivers superior sound coverage over extended distances, making it the top choice for demanding, large-scale outdoor environments.

Devialet
Dione Opéra de Paris
2999
/
Released
2022
Born of our ongoing partnership with the Opéra de Paris, this collector's edition all-in-one soundbar features sleek extremities flanking a 22-carat moon gold central plate, inspired by the gilded interiors of Paris's Opéra Garnier. Now you can tap into the emotional impact of the opera, from the privacy of your own home.
Devialet is a hifi brand that combines analog and digital amplification through their "Analog Digital Hybrid" technology, delivering extremely low distortion in sleek, minimalist speakers. Their signature Phantom speakers use high-pressure lateral drivers to produce ultra-deep bass down to 14 Hz, while their spherical design minimizes sound diffraction for consistent quality regardless of listening position.

Our Summary
Product Strengths
- Unique, striking design with a rotating center 'orb' that serves as the dedicated center channel speaker
- Impressive bass performance, potentially eliminating the need for a separate subwoofer in smaller rooms
- Good clarity and detail, especially in the midrange, resulting in clear voice reproduction and dialogue
- Delivers a room-filling and expansive soundstage
- Can be wall-mounted or placed on furniture, with acoustic adaptation for each position
Product Considerations
- Overpowering bass can overshadow the midrange and treble, resulting in a messy sound
- Limited physical connection options for its price
- No remote is included; control relies on a mobile app
- Some reviewers find the lack of rear surround sound disappointing
- Lacks DTS:X support
- Some reviewers wish tone controls would be offered
Comparisons (according to reviewers)
- The Bowers & Wilkins Panorama 3 is more accurate, but lacks the bass output of the Dione
- The Sonos Arc's soundstage is wider and more immersive, and it has more enhancement features
Takeaway: The Dione is a stylish and innovative soundbar that delivers powerful bass and clear audio. It is a good choice for people who want a single, simple unit that sounds great.
