Here are some take outs from the review:
“The most eye-catching element on show is the ‘hybrid-tweeter’or, as normal people might say, two tweeters. There’s a ribbon one and a conventional dome one, and they work in tandem. The idea is that two’s better than one – good enough for an awesome treble performance, in fact.”
“DALI is known for clarity and detail, and the IKON 1 MK2s don’t disappoint. What you get is clean and crisp. Vocals and instruments are accompanied by plenty of subtle detail. The overall impression is one of remarkable insight. Then there’s the size of the sound. These aren’t massive speakers, but the sound is huge.”
“We’re also impressed by the tonal balance. […] The bass stays on the good side of hefty: weight is evened out by a nice sense of articulation.”
“The treble really shines, thanks to those two tweeters – there’s plenty of upper-range texture. We play Muse’s Endlessly and the opening percussion is rarely as forthcoming.”
