The Devialet Mania looks like it is going to cover a lot of bases. If you are already a Devialet fan, it is a no brainer for a great outdoor portable speaker. Or, you may have admired the Devialet design but felt they were priced too high for your budget. The Devialet Mania will let you get into Devialet tech, beauty, and sound for their lowest price of entry ever. There are also people who carefully chose the objects in their home who would never consider conventional looking home audio gear. The Devialet Mania most certainly checks off that box as well. We actually think this is going to be the best selling product Devialet has ever made!

Finally, a portable Devialet speaker! Glad it lives up to its name
Yes it certainly does!
This is INSANE!! Love the look
Glad you like it, thanks
Great video. Thanks for the details!!!
Thanks, glad you liked it
I am definitely getting one of these for the holidays 😊
Hope you enjoy it!
I know!
For its small size it sounds so massive!
The bass it can output is just crazy!
It destroys every its sized speakers no diff!
Thanks for sharing, that is exactly what we felt.
I do have the Mania and I blow the Sonos Move out the water , absolutely amazing,
Also compare to the phantom reactor, it doesn’t have as strong bass but sound mid treble is much much better
Thanks for sharing!
How does this stack up against Marshall Woburn 3? I just bought that and not sure if I should just get this instead.
Sorry, we are not a Marshall dealer and have not heard that model. It looks like a completely different type of speaker, much bigger and looks like a PA speaker.
hi guys, how does the mania perform outdoors/backyard/hotub. Looking to upgrade from a JBL flip . thanks so much
When we tested it we got far more bass (like any outdoor speaker) if it was near a wall of some sort. Hope this helps
we just bought Devialet Mania Portable Smart Speaker (Light Grey) and its awesome ... power packed Bluetooth speaker :)
Awesome! Enjoy 😃
How has yours held up?. Mine sounds blown after only 8 hours of play, considering exchanging but worried it’s a common issue.
Hmm that does not sound like that's supposed to happen. Ours has lasted a long time and still running strong. We'd encourage you to exchange with the dealer you bought it from.
Nice review!
Glad you enjoyed it
How to stream in hi res with this mania? The streaming are not integrated in the devialet app and there is not upnp and not tidal connect. With airplay 2 its 16bits/44khz. The devialet mania can support 24 bits/192khz but how can i send to the speaker? Only amazon music hd with alexa? We cant use tidal or qobuz in wifi with this speaker only with airplay in 16 bits? No solution? Thanks
Where did you see it supports 24/192? We did not see that in their specs. If it does, it could be there as the DAC they chose supports that and they wanted to be ready for possible future software upgrades that might include Tidal Connect. But the Mania is really more about a very beautiful portable speaker that throws out a ton of great sound for its size. Thanks for watching
Good video, thanks! ☺️
But I have an important question:
I got mine yesterday, i love the sound basically, but if i listen to some tracks with an hard bass like some house or techno tracks and adjust bass/treble to plus 3 or higher and i go at 75% volume, than it sounds like the mania couldn’t handle that bass, it sounds like overdrive, like the membranes hit something or the air couldn’t get out from the inside… but that’s only with bass heavy songs, in other normal songs i could set it to +3 or so and go to 100% volume without this problem, so inreally don’t know if it’s normal because it’s simply to much bass for this thing if i put the eq to plus or if my mania is broken… 🤔
And it’s only on one side, not on the other which is strange too, but that could eventually be because it’s not exactly the same on the inside on both sides ?
The thing is, i think if the speaker would be broken, then it wouldn’t play without distortion if i put the eq on neutral and 100% volume because that’s allready bass heavy, or am i wrong ?
But at the same time i am a little bit disappointed because on a premium brand with the i think most expensive speaker in this class that shouldn’t be possible to acchieve an distortion in my opinion, even if i adjust the bass to +6!
Could you please try this song and put the bass to +6 and go about 70% so i know if i have to send it back or its normal ? The song was: „Kolter - washed away“ and i heard it on spotify via airplay
We tried it, that is a very bass heavy cut. We would suggest you listen to this one flat as the bass is already mixed so hot. There is probably nothing wrong with your speaker, just like you can't drive a car at full speed on a bumpy road and expect it to be perfect. Thanks for watching
@@AudioAdvice sry that i was spaming on your other video too, i watched so many videos on the mania because i do that allways if i buy something new because of the anticipation! 🙈
I only spammed this because if it wouldn’t be normal i had to return it and wait for my new one which could take some time and i need the speaker in a bit over a week, so i had to do that as fast as possible so my new speaker would be there untill that date, sorry for that again! 😅
I thank you so much, that you tried it so i am sure it’s not only mine! 🙏🏽 what’s strange is that it is only on one speaker side, but that could be like i said because of some hardware that’s inside on the side where it has the distortion! 🙈 like i said on other songs or if i listen flat there is no problem, even at 100% volume, that’s why i thought that my speaker normally couldn’t be broken, otherwise it would be there too!
And yeah, i would listen to songs like that in „flat“ for sure, because i like quality in sound and bass, i am more on the audiophile side, that was only to test, what the mania really could achieve! Now i know it’s limits! ✌🏼
The only and in my opinion BIGGEST problem with the mania is, that you can’t use the Equalizer if you are outside without Wlan!…. So if you for example have the bass/treble set to +6 and listen with very low volume at home and then forget to put it to flat again and then go outside, you are forced to hear songs like that on low volume because you can’t turn the equalizer to flat! I really don’t understand, why devialet made the decision that you can’t use the equalizer when you don’t have Wlan… that doesn’t make any sense and for an portable speaker that’s really incomprehensible in my opinion! Hope they will add that in the future…
So for home i can adjust the equalizer and if i will go outside with my cocoon, i have to make sure that the equalizer is set to flat…
I thank you so much for your fast response AudioAdvice! 🙏🏽❤️
The Devialet speakers are quite stylish.
Yes they are, thanks for watching
Great cinematography, how it compares to the Devialet Phantom 95DB?
Thank you! The Phantom goes deeper and sounds even better to our ears, but is more $$$. This little jewel is pretty cool.
Comparison I agree phantom bass much stronger but sounds clarity the Mania takes the cake much better imho, also the sound stage is much larger
It would be really interesting to see a comparison to its competitors like the Beloit 20!
Sorry, we have not heard that one. We are not a B&O dealer. Thanks for watching.
I sure would like to see a comparison between the Devialet Mania and the Brane X smart speaker. They are close to the same price but almost no one is reviewing the Brane X and they should be!
Interesting. We have not tried that one. We will look into it. Thanks!
bought the B&O beoplay level , have had a lot of portable speakers in my time ,
the level has amazing sound and can get pretty lound without distortion ,
maybe not for the bass heads , after watching a lot of reviews i took the plunge
and was not disapointed ,
I have had a great experiance too, great sound
Can you pair two for stereo use? They look really sleek.
We asked the same question, but with the way the four drivers are done, it is a single speaker. Thanks for watching
No
If you intend to use the Devialet Mania for streaming videos on a Windows device, be mindful that the sound will come out of speaker out of sync with the image in the video. Devialet is aware of this sound latency issue but does not intend on correcting it. The latency issue will not occur with IOS devices, only Windows and some cell phones.
Interesting, thanks for sharing!
For Windows, you need to fix that manually (there are simple methods online). While iOS and Android correct the automatically .
@@adamgreenhill110 Every possible "fix" was attempted, by me and the Devialet tech dept.
@@Nala_1230 ???
Should be no problem to adjust delays on sound in what ever playback program you use
after push on button it takes 40 seconds till i can connect to my device. is that normal? and i have bluettooth delay problems using my laptop 12th generation. anyone solved?
Interesting. We didn't encounter those issues. You may want to reach out to Devialet and try to reset your speaker.
Still looking for a stand alone Devialet subwoofer!
That would be interesting!
Compare to Bose revolve II, which one is better?
Sorry, we do not carry Bose.
how does it sound outdoors? is it still bossy outdoors?
We did test it outside and it performed well, especially if you put it near a boundary like a brick wall. However all speakers drop off in bass output in the outdoors. Thanks for watching
I wonder how would this compare to the Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 7, Citation 200 and B&O Beolit 20🤔
Sorry, we do not carry any of those models and have not heard them, but we can say no one seems to have the innovate tech levels that Devialet has. Thanks for watching
Well I pulled the trigger and got one. I just wish it could retain bass better at higher volume
Other than the high volume bass, how do you like it? And thanks for sharing your experience
Is small and good sound 😍😍😍💯💯💯
Yes it is!
The biggest sound, and also the biggest price…. $790.00 !!!! Holy Sheeeeet!
True, nothing Devialet makes is inexpensive, but they are made extremely well. Thanks for watching
Anyone use for desk top speakers with a Mac? Is there latency issues?
It has Bluetooth 5.0 which typically has pretty low latency. You should be fine Bluetooth streaming from your Mac.
Bro you brought that review !! 😮🎉
P.S. Kickazz Company
Thanks very much!
what is made that product?
It is from Devialet, a company in France. Thanks for watching
Is Devialet Mania uPnP compatible?
Not at this point. The wifi works with Airplay 2 and Spotify Connect.
Perfect for my yacht!..... 😁
HaHa. Thanks
Do u deliver to Australia
Sorry, we only ship in the USA, but please continue to enjoy our content
wanna see it compared with Beolit 20
Hopefully next time with sound sample, testing
We feel you can not tell how anything sounds over You Tube. You are listening to the microphone used for the recording and the room it was done in, then your playback system over compressed audio via You Tube. Thanks for watching
can this be use while charging?
Yes it can
Hmmm this video could've been 70% shorter and be just as informative.
Devialet paid for and wants more...
I feel that way about so much content! Major reason I really can't listen fo podcasts...
Then you should have bought one and did a 2 minute review !!
But there is not many reviews out there yet. At least not by the people I like. So yeah
;(
I was expecting a Sound test but its all chit chat :(
Does both the Devialet Mania Opéra de Paris and Devialet Mania speaker allow you to receive calls when listening to music from your cell phone???
That would be more of a function of your phone as you would be streaming from it via either airplay or bluetooth. Most smart phones will stop the stream when you get a call. But the Devialat Mania would not work like a pair of headphones where you could answer the call through them. Hope this helps
If you utilize Amazon Music (via Alexa) or Spotify (via Spotify Connect), phone calls will not interrupt the music stream.
Does it support NFC?
Does it support aptx, aptx hd, LDAC?
No it does not.
@@AudioAdvice
For the money, you think it would include all the latest bt codecs. Still very nice speaker.
How are the vocals? Does it sound muddy or unclear? How realistic does it sound?
The vocals are very clear. For what it is, it is a good option.
turn the thing ON !!!
Sorry, but we do not feel that over You Tube you can tell how anything sounds. You are just listening to the microphone used, the room it was recorded in, and your playback system over compressed streaming. Thanks for watching
Had 1 and gave up on it The app has issues 😑
Sorry you had trouble, thanks for watching
Have you heard the Vifa Oslo, also has push-push woofers and is almost same in size although nothing so far can compete with Oslo in same size.
Looks like Devialet is the first here...
We have not heard the Vifa Oslo, but in just looking, the Devialet Mania has more tech for a bigger sound it appears. Thanks for watching
@@AudioAdvice Nice Review! 👍
Maybe better not to give an opinion if you have not heard the Vifa Oslo.
Anyway I own the Oslo so I'll just go to a store to compare the both of them very soon.
try to tell the pros and cons
Is the speaker made in France?
It is made is Asia. Thanks for watching
Compare versus speaker dali katch
Audio Advice????
Good new nam for TeleShop
Roon ready?
Not at this time but you could use Roon with Airplay 2.
How much?? Battery life hood??
www.audioadvice.com/devialet-mania-portable-smart-speaker battery life was awesome in our testing!
@@AudioAdvice is any device good for only as long as the battery lasts???
So no sound test?
Sorry, we feel you are listening as much to the microphone used and your equipment as the actual gear.
Would appreciate if you could tell us the price….
Sorry, the price is in the link in the description.
Good job on making a video about a product without actually using the product.
We actually tested it extensively in 3 different sized rooms and two outdoor locations. We just do not believe in showing all that as there is no way you can tell how anything sounds via CZcams.
@@AudioAdvice If you're pretend audiophile to the point where this is your opinion and you don't know to compare them with other speakers then there's absolutely no reason in further discussing this matter. I just wonder why this was the top result of my search when the next 3 videos had +2x the views. I guess this is what happens when the dislike counter went away.
I would have bought two of these instantlt if stereo paring was possible. BIIIIG miss in my opinion.
Fair enough. Thanks for watching
Deviaiet mania
You got it!
10 hours battery life, but at what volume? I doubt it’s at 100%. JBL advertise their ‘charge’ model with 20 hours, but in reality, at max volume, you will get no more than 4-5 hours
Yes, that is a valid question. Thanks for watching
Devialet imployee
No we are just a dealer and have never hidden that fact.
$790 ?
as of now, yes. Thanks for watching
sure, please review an item designed for listening to music and then don't play any goddamn music through it for us.
really makes me want to buy it... oh wait, I DON'T KNOW HOW IT SOUNDS! Yes, I know, a video won't do it justice, but at least it can give an idea.
Thanks for the feedback. Typically we don't play audio samples because like you said, CZcams will compress it and it will all depend on the microphone use and what you are listening to it on and many other factors. This ends up making it sound different for everyone and not really a good evaluation.
มีแต่น้ำไม่มีเนื้อเลย ไอ้เราก็ฟังจนจบ
This guy speaks a lot but has nothing to say that interest me, play the speaker
why no sound demo? i seen this company pop up on my facebook, then i seen the price of them. i guess they are made for people who go too much money.
Would definatley take a set of big old 3way tower speakers and stereo good reciever, rather then a bluetooth speaker.
not giving a sound demo says alot about the product
We find it really difficult to give sound demos through CZcams where it will be compressed and will depend on what speakers you use to listen to it. There are a lot of variables. We really believe in listening in person if possible before purchasing. We did really enjoy the sound on this small speaker but it is not inexpensive. There are many more affordable options out there if you are in the market for something different. Thanks for watching!
I wouldn't pay even $30 for this speaker. I recommend watching the video - What's inside a $3,000 Bluetooth Speaker? - there is nothing inside that is worth over $3,000! Why are people deceived?
You make a good point. Sometimes brand loyalty is a big part of someone's purchasing decision instead of performance or price.
is this a paid commercial or paid influencer
Neither, we are an audio dealer and we sell Devialet. Thanks for watching
Mania software version 1.2.4 Airplay is OUT OF SYNC with the rest of the airplay speakers!!!!! Devialet KNOWS the ISSUE, but CANNOT FIX IT in a MONTH!!!!!! Buyer beware!!!
not for 800
The devialet phantom speaker is absolutely amazing best word is absolutely overkill but it's amazing...saying that the stand is literally a scam it's beechwood and it's mostly plastic but has weight because 98% of it is lead and it it's absolutely not worth $350 but the only thing you can use for it because nobody makes a devialet phantom stand, and same can be said for the carry case I can't even find a video but unless you spend 3x more for a custom solution you have no other choice it's like apple but exponentially worse but for $3500 it's a beautiful speaker but the proprietary accessories make it feel like you're getting scammed and ripped off and lower the quality of the insane amazing speaker
The Phantom modesl are great speakers, yes the stands are pricey, but they do work very well. Thanks for watching
Worth 200 quid all day....I guess I'll be waiting to get ripped off when it's down to 500 🤦♀️🤷♀️🤧🤧.....tribit stormbox it is then 🤷♀️
haha
Done deal.
Thanks very much!
Not so great reviews on this speaker, 3 out of 5 stars on Amazon. 30hz-20khz, unimpressive freq. response. $790 price tag? Come on now..
14 Day return policy, if this was a great speaker why only a 14 day return? When companies offer 90 returns or longer, this SHOWS that they stand behind their product.
Seems to me, you are being paid By Devialet..........There is an old saying, Buyer Beware!
We agree it does seem short, if you purchase from Audio Advice, we offer 30 days. 90 days on consumer electronics is very rare and can lead to consumer abuse where they "borrow" equipment then return it when their need is over, creating a lot of open box gear. Thanks for watching
Rather lousy codecs, I'll pass unfortunately.
Is it me or did this review felt a bit "out of tone", cause we didn't get to hear the actual product...
Sorry, but our feeling is there is no way to tell how anything sounds over You Tube. You are listening to the microphone used for the recording and your playback system.
You get big payment from them to price them so high, the reciew sounds so fake . This is small speaker overpriced and compare to many not that great sounded.
too gushing. just tell us the facts
How many watts do they call this 2000 watts hahaha fake
Thanks for the info
What afail not playing any music samples and just talking and talking and talking....and talking
Sorry, but we do not feel you can tell how anything actually sounds via You Tube. Thanks for watching
I don't understand how you review a speaker with 0s of sound test
We do not feel you can in any way possible tell how a speaker sounds over You Tube. You are listening to the microphone used and your playback system over a very compressed audio stream. We do our best to describe what we hear. Thanks for watching
Made in china?
The design is hideous
These look pretty cool in person and certainly sound way bigger than you would expect for their size.
$800 lol GTFO!!!!!!!!
Yes, it is not a cheap speaker. But it certainly sounds really good and is built to last. On that note, there are a lot of alternatives in the lower price ranges that may work just as good for you!
Talk too much nonsense, thank god there’s playback speed adjustments on YT
Blah blah blah and no demo of how it sounds smh.
It can be very hard to hear how a speaker sounds over a CZcams video. We do appreciate the feedback though.
So much talking and not even a sample of testing trash.
We have come to the conclusion that sampling audio via You Tube does not tell you anything about the product. You are hearing the microphone used and your playback system over a very compressed app. So we have stopped doing it.
All this and didn’t even let us hear the sound 🤦🏽♂️
Sorry. We do not believe you can tell how speakers sound over You Tube. You are listening to the microphone and your system over compressed audio Thanks for watching
What an actual joke. Imagine paying 800 dollars for a portable Bluetooth speaker that's only ipx4 rated 🤣 feel bad for whoever spent money on this
While their IPX rating is not as high as some others, there is no portable speaker we have seen that is this small and sounds and looks as good as the Mania. Thanks for watching
Downvoted! all talk no sound demo. expect us to believe a random guy's non stop 10 mins talk to buy the speaker? nah...
It can be very difficult to hear how a product sounds through a CZcams video. It will be compressed and ultimately sound different for everyone depending on what equipment they are using. We do appreciate your feedback.
@@AudioAdvice your argument is irrelevant. the audio compression of youtube is same for every uploader. and the content consumers are not changing speakers or headphones for each youtube video they watch. yes, it will not give us the EXACT sound that the speaker produces but it'll give a pretty good idea even thought the quality is less than listening in person. you can check out the youtube videos that your competitors upload for comparing sound of different speakers. you can clearly spot the differences, in youtube.
I just wanna hear it. Stop talking
We do not feel you can hear how a speaker sounds over You Tube, we do our best to describe what we heard.
regret watching this video 😭.. 9 minutes.. useless information
let me listen. stop talking.
Sorry, but we do not feel that over You Tube you can tell how anything sounds. You are just listening to the microphone used, the room it was recorded in, and your playback system over compressed streaming. Thanks for watching
I looked at the speaker and guess what I wasn’t shocked and how great it looked, I despise this type of hyperbole and completely unnecessary verbiage.
Why would anybody be shocked at how great anything for that matter looked.
I stopped listening at 2:43.
Just play it.. i can't hear a thing..
It can be really difficult to translate how it truly sounds through a compressed CZcams video. We recommend you try it in person if possible to hear how it sounds. Thanks!
