    Dali Opticon 6 Vs Rubikore 6 - Impressions

    Not being a party pooper at all, you make a very valid point. I’m very undecided about whether it’s worth it, particularly because as I’m into multichannel music, so i did decide to go for the Rubikore’s I’d need at least the matching centre. My experience up to now has indeed been that I...

    Dali Opticon 6 Vs Rubikore 6 - Impressions

    Thanks. It was frustrating, with my Opticon’s in the corner of my room, not being able to just quickly swap the speakers over for a comparison! I can’t praise Richer Sounds enough, they have always gone above and beyond for me - but then I have bought most of my kit from them! I have the...

    Dali Opticon 6 Vs Rubikore 6 - Impressions

    Wish I could have just swapped them over, but unfortunately I have a disability that severely affects my mobility and it just wasn't possible for me to do it. Do you mean having the 2's as rears?

    Dali Opticon 6 Vs Rubikore 6 - Impressions

    I've just had the Rubikore 6's on demo for a week from Richer Sounds and really like them. Everything I played on them sounded great. I'm still undecided on whether it's worth the cost over the Opticon's, for my room. In addition to stereo I listen to multi channel music, so would upgrade the...

    Dali Opticon 6 Vs Rubikore 6 - Impressions

    Interesting, thanks. I hadn't considered the LCR as I assumed it was just a wall mounted speakers whereas I have stands for the rears. I may be able to negotiate on price if I ask I guess. The quote is from Audio T. I usually use Richer Sounds and they usually give me a discount, but...

    Dali Opticon 6 Vs Rubikore 6 - Impressions

    Interesting idea, thanks. It's not something I've considered as although I have multichannel, my focus is on music and I've never thought of using a centre speaker for other channels.

    Dali Opticon 6 Vs Rubikore 6 - Impressions

    Yeah I think they would look nice. No discounts unfortunately. I think it’s £4274. In total it would cost me a hefty £8400, with replacing the centres and rears, plus delivery, installation and some Drac calibration with my SA45, but I’ve just sold some previous gear and would sell the Opticon...

    Dali Opticon 6 Vs Rubikore 6 - Impressions

    I didn't experiment with placement to be honest. My listening room is small and I'm rellatively restricted on placement, but my main goal was to hear the difference between the Ribikores and the Opticons I have, so I kept them at the same placement and used the same 4-5 tracks. What you say...

    Dali Opticon 6 Vs Rubikore 6 - Impressions

    My current system is Dali Opticon 6 Mk 1 with Arcam SA45 anp and Arcam CD5 CD player. I've been curious what the next step up would sound like, so today I had a home demo of Dali Rubikore 6 and Spendor D7.2 The demo confirmed to me that I prefer the Dali presentation over Spendor, but what...
