A WIDE RANGE OF INPUTS
Supporting digital and analogue sources
The DALI SOUND HUB features an extensive range of inputs for all your digital and analogue audio sources. When you start playing music or turn on your TV, it switches to the correct source automatically. And with two modular expansion ports, you can also add high-resolution streaming and 7.1 channel surround sound via HDMI.
BLUETOOTH CONNECTIVITY
Supporting high performance AAC & aptx
Bluetooth connectivity is built right into the SOUND HUB. Connect any Bluetooth-enabled audio source and play music stored locally or via your favourite streaming service in seconds. The SOUND HUB also supports AAC, aptX and aptX HD audio from compatible devices for impressive high-resolution audio playback in up to 24 bit/48 kHz resolution.
ANALOGUE SOURCES
Reproducing better-than-CD quality
The SOUND HUB's analogue input is where audiophile tradition meets the future of wireless active Hi-Fi. Using advanced analogue to digital conversion, the SOUND HUB converts audio from sources like CD players, turntables and RIAA phono preamplifiers into a high resolution, better-than-CD quality, 24 bit/96 kHz stream for the best possible audio reproduction.
SUBWOOFER OUTPUT
Delivering powerful low-end detail
The SOUND HUB includes a volume-controlled, line-level analogue subwoofer output that switches on automatically when a subwoofer is detected. For seamless integration with the rest of the system, the output is low-pass filtered to match the frequency characteristics of the main speakers. Using the optional DALI WSR (Wireless Subwoofer Receiver), the SOUND HUB can connect wirelessly to any active subwoofer for a full-range 2.1 setup or as a true LFE channel in a multichannel system.
EXPANSION PORTS
Plug-in modules for extra functionality
One of the most innovative features of the DALI SOUND HUB is hidden away from view. The two modular expansion ports at the back open up the SOUND HUB to a world of possibilities, including streaming, multi-room and multi-channel audio.
7.1 CHANNEL SURROUND
Create an amazing multichannel setup
When connected to a TV via HDMI ARC or eARC, the HDMI plug-in module enables the SOUND HUB to deliver up to 7.1 channels of high quality Dolby and DTS surround sound.
BLUOS MULTI-ROOM

Devised by audiophiles for audiophiles, the NPM-2i module streams high-resolution audio to your DALI EQUI speakers and integrates with other BluOS-enabled devices to create an amazing multi-room setup around your home.
MQA CERTIFIED

WHAT HI-FI?
AV CESAR (FR)
We connect the OBERON 1 C to the full SOUND HUB [...] and stream Tom Odell's Heal over Tidal Connect. The vocal-led track comes through the speakers with tangible clarity and the kind of levels of insight you can feel. Odell's delivery is full of tenderness and the DALI is sympathetic to that, while also keeping a firm hand on the accompanying keys.
Read full reviewThe simplicity of installation of the system and its flexibility in terms of layout. Even if you prefer a wired connection for the SOUND HUB, the latter's wireless communication with the speakers offers new freedom of placement, and therefore new configurations, within a living room for example.
