I bought a pair of Silver Phantoms and a Dialog.
The sound quality is superb for the price. By having a small spherical fronted co-axial speaker layout they solve all the diffraction defects of conventional easy to make rectangular boxes with spaced drive units at a stroke. The DSP controlled bass has very low distortion and astonishing bandwidth.
The down side, so far, is the software and firmware. Basically they don't work as long as my typical listening session without crashing. A CD transport into an optical connector in either Phantom works well, streaming from my computer does not with hic-ups or silence on one channel for the first few seconds of each track, perhaps whilst the data is being fed to the Dialog.
Sometimes one speaker goes silent and checking the control software, Spark, shows that that speaker is no longer on the list of connected items. Re-doing the setup almost always hangs. I usually give up at this point and listen to my normal system. The Dialog smells very hot.
So far neither the USB nor the optical connections on the Dialog have been implemented. I don't know about 5.1, since I only have 2, but Spark seems not to have a setup for more than 2 speakers per room at the moment, so I presume that also is yet to be implemented.
In summary I would say the speaker itself is a brilliant concept, solving many of the problems inherent in traditional boxes.
The software (or internal firmware perhaps) has been issued very incomplete and before even that which is included works properly.
I will bring mine to Scalford and see how long we can get them working for. The SQ, particularly bass, is ground breaking IMO.
I had planned to use them for the rear channels of a movie system with Devialet classic amped front speakers, but assuming they de-bug the software which I am sure they will, 4 of them would replace a 5.1 system IMO since neither a centre speaker nor sub would be needed.
