For over five years, the OPTICON series has been at the heart of the DALI product range, providing countless music lovers and audiophiles access to the DALI sound world. However, it was time to enrich the OPTICON series with new ideas and technologies, and to further develop its aesthetics. Welcome to the DALI OPTICON MK2.
- Fresh and elegant aesthetics with new finishes (Satin White, Satin Black, and Tobacco Oak), complemented by speaker grilles in furniture-grade fabric.
- New woofers and mid-range drivers with SMC technology and wood fiber cones adopted from DALI EPICON loudspeakers.
- New, DALI-developed and manufactured tweeter with a larger diameter, based on the tweeter from the DALI CALLISTO.
- New tweeter front plates made of die-cast aluminum.
- DALI Dual Flare bass reflex ports reduce turbulence and noise.
- Revised crossovers with improved, low-loss components.
- Sonic tuning for the revised MK2 to optimize perceived playback quality.
OPTICON 1 MK2
The OPTICON 1 MK2 is a compact loudspeaker that can be placed on walls or (in smaller listening rooms) even hung on the wall. Its driver complement includes a 4¾-inch wood fiber cone, a woofer-midrange unit equipped with an SMC magnet, and a newly developed 29mm diameter soft dome tweeter – based on the tweeter from our CALLISTO loudspeaker series.
The 5-liter cabinet's dual-flare bass reflex port allows the OPTICON 1 MK2 to deliver remarkable bass performance for its size, which integrates perfectly with the mid-range and treble reproduction. An easy-to-mount wall bracket, which fits the keyhole slot on the rear of the OPTICON 1 MK2, is included.
