RUBICON 8 C
RUBICON 8 C
The DALI RUBICON 8 C is our ultimate wireless Hi-Fi speaker, delivering effortless audiophile performance in a premium-quality cabinet without the wires. Part of the DALI EQUI wireless audio series.
Zero-Loss Wireless
The proprietary wireless connection between RUBICON C and the hub is extremely stable and requires no active Wi-Fi signal.
Patented SMC
With an SMC magnet pole-piece surrounded by a slitted copper cap, the effect of the SMC is focused and maximised to reduce distortion.
Wood Fibre Cones
The wood fibre cone gives a light, rigid and uneven surface for even, piston-like motion and greatly reduced surface resonance.
Hybrid Tweeter
Our Danish-made signature hybrid tweeter combines a dome tweeter with a planar element for an amazing rendition of high frequencies.
Finish: Walnut (Veneer)

WIRELESS SPEAKER SYSTEM
Best-in-class active loudspeaker
The RUBICON 8 C is part of the DALI EQUI ecosystem of wireless active speakers and amplifiers that lets you play music in the best possible quality without the need for complicated electronics or speaker cables. The RUBICON 8 C combines the acclaimed drivers and cabinet construction of our passive RUBICON series with the amplifier technology from the CALLISTO series to deliver the ultimate wireless musical experience and enough bass to fill larger rooms.
PATENTED SMC
Reducing distortion with SMC
The RUBICON 8 C draws on the heritage from the SMC-based 'Linear Drive System', introduced with the EPICON series. With SMC, we achieve extremely low distortion and maximise detail, even at low volume. The drivers are manufactured in-house at our production facilities in central Denmark and feature the latest in magnet motor technology. The RUBICON 8 C sets new audio quality standards for Hi-Fi lovers around the world.

Patented state-of-the-art technology
Designing a best-in-class active speaker system is the sum of many parts, including the all-important amplification. Using a digital crossover in place of a passive analogue filter, the RUBICON 8 C's closed loop, self-oscillating Class D amplifiers drive the woofers and tweeters directly, resulting in a pairing that's tuned to bring out even more dynamic detail in whatever you play.
6½" WOOFERS
Drawing on technology from EPICON series
The woofer cones have a light, rigid and randomly uneven structure, which lowers the complexity of the central part of the motor, ensures piston-like movement, significantly reduces the possibility of surface resonance and minimises distortion. Designed specifically for the RUBICON 8 C, the soft, low-loss rubber surround includes a cast-aluminium chassis designed for maximum airflow around the cone and magnet system.
DALI HYBRID TWEETER
The master of wide dispersion
The DALI hybrid tweeter module features a soft dome tweeter and a planar element that combine to create an amazing rendition of high-frequency details. The voice-coil used in the RUBICON 8 C soft dome is extremely light and agile, which helps it deliver a broader bandwidth. The planar tweeter is the master of wide dispersion and, in combination with the soft dome, reaches as low as 2.5 kHz, providing continuous wide dispersion as the soft dome becomes more directional at higher frequencies. This extreme bandwidth and ultra-wide dispersion is an important part of DALI's sound philosophy.

Richly defined detail & big bass
The gracefully elegant RUBICON 8 C cabinet provides a rigid foundation for the low-loss drivers. On this inside, the woofers are enclosed in separate chambers to minimise interference, while bass reflex ports positioned directly behind each woofer minimises turbulence and delivers exceptional timing.
