From the oversized soft-dome tweeter, to the wood-fiber woofers, and even the crossover, DALI's goals are low coloration and wide dispersion. The first is important because you want to hear your music the way it's supposed to sound, and the second because you're not always sitting in the sweet spot. In fact, DALI is so committed to their wide-dispersion approach, the company recommends that you don't "toe-in" these speakers toward your listening position. You'll get clearer, less-distorted sound, they explain, with the speakers firing straight ahead, and their cabinets parallel to the wall behind them. Standout in an affordable thoroughbred speaker line Slender and 40" tall on its elegant aluminum base, the Oberon 7 stands near the top of the value-priced Oberon Series. The 7s will deliver a fluid and robust soundstage in larger rooms — in a convincing, organic manner — without losing composure or delicacy. DALI carefully designed the 7s for a seamless handoff between the drivers. The woofers' stiff, lightweight construction — a blend of fine-grain paper pulp reinforced with wood fibers — has an inviting sonic signature. And the 1-1/8" tweeter also reproduces relatively low frequencies — for a tweeter — so that it overlaps with the woofers in the most musical manner. Patented distortion-reducing technology The iron pole pieces of the woofers' magnets are capped with patented SMC (soft magnetic compound) disks that minimizes the negative effects of the iron. This reduces mechanical distortion, and helps create a relaxed, uncolored midrange. You'll hear a surprising amount of detail, without fatiguing your ears. Our writer's hands-on experience with the DALI Oberon 7 "I had promised myself I'd upgrade from bookshelf speakers to floor-standers as soon as I moved from an apartment to a house. That happened in early 2022, so I started looking — and listening — for the right speakers for my new living room. Small problem — when you work at a place like Crutchfield, where you get to hear so many great speakers every day, it's easy to become paralyzed with indecision." "Fortunately, one of my colleagues set up a live demo featuring three different pairs of speakers hooked up to the same source. I naturally made a point to check it out. I put on Sade's soaring 'Is It A Crime?' and began to cycle through my options. I won't name their competitors, but suffice to say that the DALI Oberon 7's announced their presence with authority. By the end of the demo, I was in love, and immediately purchased a pair to showcase in my new, improved sound system." "They've lived up to that initial impression, and then some. They have a rich, full soundstage that fills my space nicely. I've really enjoyed discovering new nuances in my favorite tracks. I also appreciate the visceral punch they add when I'm watching movies and TV shows — I especially enjoyed the thrilling sonic environment of high-stakes racing that pervades the Netflix series Formula 1: Drive to Survive. These speakers are an all-around entertainment superstar, and I'm glad I had this chance to give one pair a forever home." — Crutchfield copywriter Eric A. Introduce yourself to Danish speaker mojo DALI — Danish Audiophile Loudspeaker Industries — has been making high-end speakers since 1983. The Oberon is their entry-level line, but we think it offers great bang for your buck. Tight vinyl-dressed, high-density MDF cabinets, with internal bracing and acoustic damping material throughout, all but eliminate resonance. This helps the speaker "disappear," and the music come alive. Got wire? The Oberon 7 doesn't include any speaker wire. Read our article about choosing and installing speaker wire.
