DALI IO-12, wireless over-ear headphones

The DALI IO-12 Hi-Fi headphones are the world's first headphones to feature patented SMC technology in the transducer magnets, which, combined with our exclusive paper fiber diaphragms, delivers unrivaled realism and crystal-clear sound. They deliver the same low-loss sound with exceptional clarity and dynamic capabilities that you would expect from any DALI speaker. These are true Hi-Fi headphones for you.

World-leading speaker technology
The IO-12 is the world's first headphone to feature the patented SMC magnet system. Using a soft magnetic composite that reduces uneven distortion, the result is ultra-clear, low-distortion sound that brings the music to life.

The only headphones you'll ever need
The DALI IO-12 delivers an impressive music experience both via wireless Bluetooth aptX Adaptive connection and when connected via a cable to a Hi-Fi system.

Disconnect from the world
Enjoy every detail of your music. Advanced noise cancellation technology, Audiophile Active Noise Cancellation, ensures an immersive listening experience by blocking out low-frequency sounds. Three AANC modes let you tailor the sound to the situation, whether you're relaxing at home or on the go.

Extended listening between charges
The powerful lithium-ion battery provides up to 35 hours of music playback. The built-in LED battery level indicator and voice alerts will always let you know the charge level.

Sound profiles to suit your taste
Choose from Hi-Fi and Bass modes to tailor the sound to your music style. Do you want natural sound or more powerful bass? The IO-12 headphones let you enjoy your music the way you want.
