My review pair shipped with the more expensive Sound Hub whose front panel gives us on/off, source select, mute, and volume control. Two major differences between the Sound Hub and Sound Hub Compact are: 1) the Compact offers HDMI for TV viewing, while the Sound Hub skips HDMI to add two slots for optional add-in modules. Think of either hub as connectivity central for the Oberon system. The Sound Hub Compact + Oberon 1C package sells for US$1948.

There’s also the Sound Hub Compact (US$399), designed with the Oberon C series in mind or for those who wish to same some coin and/or deal with a more svelte-looking intermediary. Integral (but outboard) to every active speaker in the DALI range is the company’s Sound Hub (US$799). So let’s dig into where the devil resides… Attractive grille covers come as standard.ĭispensing with loudspeaker cables means that complexity for the newcomer can pop up elsewhere. The cabinets are made from CNC-machined high strength MDF panels covered in wood-effect (Black Ash, Light Oak, Dark Walnut) or Matte White laminates. A subtle but important distinction.ĭALI specifies the Oberon 1C’s frequency response at a healthy 39Hz – 26kHz and that this model’s low-frequency reach (+/-3 dB) can be attributed, in part, to internal DSP equalization. This is unlike most “powered speakers” where a single amplifier drives a passive crossover that sends split signals along to the drivers.
Price oberon system driver#
The fact that each driver in the Oberon 1C has a dedicated 50W (peak) Class D amplifier means an active crossover plays traffic cop to the incoming signal, splitting it before sending it onto those amplifiers. On the back, large diameter dual-flare reflex ports allow for near-wall or even on-wall positioning - handy built-in keyhole slots are included for this purpose. The DALI Oberon 1C ($1499.00/pair) is a small (274mm H x 162mm W x 234m D) ‘ wireless’ standmount loudspeaker that incorporates DALI’s in-house manufactured 5.25” Wood Fibre Cone bass/mid driver and 29mm Soft Textile Dome high-frequency driver. The reason for this purposeful omission is obvious: loudspeakers look better without wires. There has never been, in the history of the world, a money shot of loudspeakers in situ that also shows the speaker cables.
