OBERON 7
OBERON 7
The floorstanding DALI OBERON 7 speaker delivers the very best in deep bass and large room performance. The OBERON 7 also belies its physical size with a surprisingly delicate, natural and lifelike performance.
Easy to Position
The wide dispersion pattern of the drivers ensures well-integrated sound that drastically reduces off-axis harmonic distortion.
Contemporary Design
The rounded edges and grille fabric add a lighter and more contemporary look, enhanced by the elegantly shaped aluminium base on the floorstanding models.
Wood Fibre Cones
The stiff, lightweight structure of the reinforced wood fibre cone reproduces details that are uncoloured and highly accurate.
Patented SMC
The woofer magnet's iron pole-piece includes a patented SMC disc that greatly reduces mechanical distortion for a relaxed midrange and lots of detail.
Finish: Dark Walnut (Vinyl)

EASY INTEGRATION
Well-integrated sound, even off axis
With the OBERON 7, we've made it easy to integrate it into any room. The driver materials and geometry are purpose-designed to achieve a wide dispersion pattern. The same principles have been applied in the design of the crossover to deliver a well-integrated sound, even when listening at a significant off-axis angle. An added benefit of a wide dispersion pattern is that harmonic distortion and diffractions causing frequency distortion are significantly reduced this is also the reason why DALI speakers are not designed to be toed in.
NEW WOOD FIBRE CONE
Optimised with new wood fibre structure
The OBERON 7 features two 7" low loss woofers optimised with a new wood fibre structured cone dedicated to reproducing the delicate midrange and bass frequency area. Constructed from a blend of fine-grain paper pulp reinforced with wood fibres, the woofer creates a stiff, yet lightweight structure. And when combined with the low loss surround and spider suspension, the OBERON 7 woofer reproduces the most minute details in the signal, unfiltered and with high accuracy.
REDUCING DISTORTION
Patented SMC (Soft Magnetic Composite)
The use of SMC (Soft Magnetic Composite) in the OBERON 7 greatly reduces mechanical distortion caused by hysteresis and eddy currents. The result is a magnet motor system with a drastic reduction in third-order distortion, allowing the OBERON 7 to deliver extended listening pleasure, a relaxed midrange and a surprising amount of detailing in its class.

Combining proven technologies & features
The oversized 29 mm ultra-lightweight soft dome tweeter was specifically developed for the OBERON series, combining well-proven technologies from our existing DALI speakers with new features. The large size of the membrane lets the tweeter generate higher sound pressure with less excursion, keeping the voice-coil motion to a controlled minimum. The tweeter front plate near the dome has been designed with similar geometry to the OPTICON and RUBICON tweeters to create the optimal working conditions for the soft dome. This results in extended frequency response, wide dispersion and low colouration.
OPTIMISED CABINET
Cabinet design beyond 'just' good looks
The OBERON 7 cabinet is constructed from a high density, CNC machined MDF board dressed in high-grade vinyl. The extremely rigid structure is achieved with solid bracings across the inside of the cabinet, which practically eliminates cabinet resonance. The bass ports at the rear of the cabinet optimise room integration by using a rear wall surface to improve bass performance. The elegantly shaped aluminium base also gives the floorstanding OBERON 7 a lighter, elevated look.

"[...] the speaker gives a large and fulsome sound that projects the stereo image well out of the box, pushing beyond the physical limitations of its cabinets with a decent amount of stage depth, too. [...] Impressive stuff, but it's the tonality that's really special for a product at this price."
"[...] these speakers deliver a sound unlike anything else I have heard from DALI." "[...] a strong bass with a lot of punch and excess, a midrange that was obvious at high sound levels when the drums was beating in a great rock track. Last but not least, the treble delivered a really high degree of detail, which gathered the total sound image really well."
"For the first time with this recording it sounded like a room full of instruments, not only were the solo performers pinpointed but I could hear the individual strings and woodwinds as they performed together."
