DALI KORE Speaker Features Proprietary Technologies
Providing an overview of its flagship speaker, the DALI KORE introduces the DALI patented Balanced Drive SMC technology, a new driver topology utilized on the woofers and the midrange. This is a “world first” and combines dual voice-coil differential drive technology with SMC technology the company asserts.
The KORE features the new high sensitivity EVO-K Hybrid Tweeter, an evolution of the DALI Hybrid Tweeter module. The combination of a large in-house designed and manufactured 35 mm (1.37-inch) dome, and a new high sensitivity version of the ribbon element, creates a high-performance tweeter element the company notes.
The KORE’s midrange driver is DALI’s first dedicated midrange that has been built from the ground up. This large, high sensitivity, 7-inch driver features a range of technological innovations and brings natural warmth and musical coherence to the all-important midrange frequencies.
Creating the crossover for the DALI KORE, with its five drivers and individually filtered woofers, required imagination, intuition, and experience the company boasts. The DALI KORE has been equipped with the finest crossover components available.
Each material used in the DALI KORE enclosure has been chosen with form and function in mind. The curved wood laminate, gloss-lacquered ammara Ebony veneer, and contrasting textured finish, has been taken directly from the world of luxury furniture design DALI points out. The die-cast aluminum and structural composite materials offer more design freedom and a highly rigid platform for the drivers. The 34 kg (75 pound) cement-based resin composite plinth provides a solid foundation for the speaker’s substantial 160 kg (353 pounds) overall weight.
Updates to the EPIKORE Speaker Product Line
DALI and its U.S. distributor Lenbrook also point out the EPIKORE range also got an update with a new white model which launches in November and includes every speaker in the range.
With the EPIKORE Series, DALI drew upon its more than 40 years of loudspeaker research and development experience. The natural evolution of the DALI EPICON series — inheriting several technologies from the DALI KORE flagship speaker — the EPIKORE Series of loudspeakers combines what the company describes as audio realism with luxurious craftmanship.
The EPIKORE series are available in three exclusive premium finishes — high-gloss black, high-gloss walnut, and high-gloss Maroon — and share several key technologies. These technologies include the EVO-K Hybrid Tweeter module, comprising a 35 mm soft-dome tweeter (1.37 inch) and a 55 x 10 mm (2.16 inch x 0.39-inch) high-frequency planar element. The speakers also employ DALI’s SMC Gen-2 technology for ultra-low distortion, custom-made in-house drivers, and Clarity Cone paper and wood fiber cone structure bass/mid-range drivers.
