The Devialet Mania stands only as tall as a smartphone, but it packs four full-range drivers, two subwoofers, and a 10-hour battery.
French audio company, Devialet, has always attempted to create speakers that blend high style with high performance. Its latest creation, the $790 Devialet Mania, adds a new twist to that formula: portability. It comes in black, grey, and an available $990 Paris Opéra edition, which uses 24-carat “moongold” embellishments. All three are available to order from devialet.com.
Standing at under 6.7 inches tall, the spherical Mania is tiny — just a fraction of an inch larger than a Google Pixel 7 Pro — but inside, it packs four full-range drivers plus two subwoofers, which helps to explain why, despite being so small, it still weighs about five pounds. Also contributing to its weight is a built-in rechargeable battery that Devialet claims will power the Mania for up to 10 hours. It charges over USB-C, but you can also buy an optional $80 wireless charging base.
