EASY TO POSITION
The driver materials, crossover design and geometry applied in the OBERON C series have been selected to achieve a wide dispersion pattern. This ensures a well-integrated sound, even when listening at a significant off-axis angle. An added benefit is seriously reduced harmonic distortion and diffractions causing frequency distortion. This is why all DALI speakers are not designed to be toed-in.
LOW LATENCY
The SOUND HUB COMPACT transmits to OBERON C speakers using a proprietary 30 bit wireless protocol derived from the acclaimed DALI SOUND HUB. Audio transmission latency from input to speaker is typically less than 15 mS, and inter-speaker timing is accurate to the single sample period of the broadcast audio data.
PATENTED SMC
The iron pole piece of the OBERON C woofer magnet is crowned by the DALI patented SMC disk - minimizing the negative effects of the iron. The use of the SMC disk greatly reduces mechanical distortion, which lowers third order distortion. This allows for a longer listening pleasure, a relaxed midrange and a surprising amount of detail for its price class.
ACTIVE SPEAKER
The OBERON C power amplification comprises two 50 Watt peak, closed-loop Class-D power amplifiers chosen specifically for their sound quality and dynamic ability. One amplifier powers the high frequency driver, one powers the bass/mid driver (or twin drivers in the case of the OBERON 7 C).
PRODUCT DETAILS
The OBERON ON-WALL C was designed with TV audio very much in mind and despite its compact dimensions, the combination of DALI technologies employed endow it with performance comparable to significantly larger speakers. The OBERON ON-WALL C is designed specifically for direct wall mounting via rear panel keyhole slots. Portrait and landscape orientations are both accommodated.
The slim and discreet OBERON ON-WALL C comprises a compact, low profile, rear reflex loaded cabinet fitted with a 5.25” DALI wood fiber cone driver featuring SMC, and a DALI ultra lightweight 29mm soft dome tweeter.
The compactness of the OBERON ON-WALL C makes it easy to integrate into any room. To achieve a wide dispersion pattern in the listening area, the driver materials and geometry applied in the OBERON ON-WALL C have been carefully selected. The same principles have been applied in the design of the crossover.
As a result, you will experience a well-integrated sound, even when listening at a significant off-axis angle. This is important as you are rarely seated directly in front of you loudspeakers when listening to music. An added benefit is seriously reduced harmonic distortion and diffractions causing frequency distortion, as these will always be stronger in an on-axis response. This is also the reason why all DALI speakers are not designed to be toed-in.
AMPLIFIER
The OBERON ON-WALL C power amplification comprises two 50 Watt-peak, closed-loop Class-D power amplifiers chosen specifically for their sound quality and dynamic ability. One amplifier powers the high frequency driver and one powers the bass/mid driver. The 100dB signal-to-noise ratio of the power amplifiers ensures that even the smallest detail in a quiet musical passage is reproduced with clarity and accuracy.
The electronic module mounted on the rear panel of the OBERON ON-WALL C incorporates a wireless receiver element and user setup interface, a DSP equalization and crossover filter element, and a high efficiency two channel power amplifier with a closely integrated power supply.
Powering the amplifier is a custom designed (65W(rms)), very low noise switched mode supply that is able to dynamically share resources between the two amplifier channels in response to demand. The OBERON ON-WALL C is, as a result, unusually frugal in terms of power consumption, yet gives nothing away in terms of dynamic punch when the music demands it.
