Hi, after having experience with Dali speakers in the past I think new Sonik series is gonna be a superstar in its class - sonicaly. This is very capable competitor for B&W 6xx, Kef Q series, Monitor Audio Bronze, etc. Indicated prices are very competitive. BR.

Another entry to the usual suspects. DALI always seem to be competent. I have no idea what it takes to be exceptional in todays crowded market. On paper it reads like any small box speaker around that price.

That makes me feel old, as I can distinctly remember the launch of Oberon which I heard at the Bristol Show that February. Probably before Covid so not so recently!

I’m afraid these days I tend to think they’ve found a way to shave even more money off the build cost, rather than offering a great improvement. However, Dali seem to offer genuinely decent products at a modest price, so I will keep an open mind.

Intriguing that they suggest it might take 100 hours to fully ‘burn in’ new speakers. Designed to fire straight ahead rather than toed-in to face the listener.

Thanks for posting - I’ve not seen this anywhere else yet!

No idea where the no toe in comes from, in my experience even speakers that state this do actually need some, at least in my house.......
Makes me feel these were designed for home cinema rather than HiFi per se.
