DALI Opticon LCR MK2 Wall Mountable Speaker (Single), Tobacco Oak

Full Description

The hybrid tweeter's remarkable ability to reproduce high frequencies is nothing short of captivating. It delivers the details with such clarity that you'll feel like you're right there, whether it's the sound of someone stepping on fresh, crisp snow or the subtle nuances of a cinematic experience. Vocal extensions seamlessly blend with the subwoofer, creating a range and depth that defy expectations. Darth Vader's raspy vocals sound as ominously threatening as they should, giving you a taste of the power of this exceptional speaker. From the thunderous lightning strikes of Terminator 2 that raise the hairs on your neck to the surprising thinness of the speaker out of the box, the Opticon LCR Mk2 defies expectations at every turn. Once you hear it in action, any doubts are quickly dispelled.

The speaker's swivel hybrid tweeter enclosure further enhances its versatility. It's designed to accommodate both vertical and horizontal wall mounting, allowing you to position the speaker in the orientation that best suits your room's layout and acoustic preferences. The heart of the speaker lies in its custom-engineered 6.5" SMC mid-range driver. Crafted using fine paper pulp and reinforced wood fibre, this driver ensures exceptional sound quality, enhancing your listening experience. For precise bass reproduction, the speaker incorporates a Dual Downward Bass Reflex Port. This feature reduces turbulence, allowing the speaker to deliver accurate and powerful bass, adding depth to your audio.

The Opticon LCR MK2's ultra-narrow width and wall-mountable cabinet design make it an ideal choice for various room configurations. Whether you're setting up a centre speaker, stereo system, rear channels, a 3-channel setup, or a complete surround sound system, this speaker effortlessly adapts to your requirements.

Hybrid Tweeter

The new OPTICON MK2 hybrid tweeter marries the CALLISTO-derived 29 mm soft dome with a custom 17 x 45 mm ribbon - mounted on a cast aluminium faceplate that incorporates dispersion control detailing. This combination offers the clarity, speed and dynamics of a dome tweeter, with the very high frequency detail and smooth finesse of a ribbon tweeter.

Made in Denmark

Manufacture of the OPTICON MK2 series has been retained firmly at our Danish factory. Our in-house woodworking facility handles everything from cutting the MDF enclosure panels to applying the surface finishes. Assembly by hand, testing and quality approval on each and every speaker is also handled on our own assembly lines

Assembled In Pairs

Speakers used and enjoyed in pairs should also be built as pairs! Our manufacturing process is designed to ensure that stereo pairs of speakers are built and tested sequentially by a single manufacturing technician, using components taken in the same order from the same batch. It’s a process that helps ensure ultimate visual and acoustic pair matching.

SMC Technology

The SMC used in OPTICON MK2's magnet motor system has very high magnetic permeability and very low electrical conductivity. It works primarily by minimising eddy currents in the magnet system pole piece. This improves flux linearity, reducing the magnetic hysteresis. Resulting in a significant reduction of electro-acoustic distortion.
