Lenbrook Americas press release today announced the launch of their DALI OBERON
9. Here's some details:
"The OBERON 9 (US MSRP $2,499/pr) is offered in Black Ash and Dark Walnut
finishes and will be available in late March. With a dedicated 7” midrange and
two long-throw 9” woofers it offers outstanding dynamic capabilities most
speakers can only dream of. The OBERON 9 is a true three-way design that
combines ultimate refinement and startling detail with effortless power
handling to bring genuine concert and cinema experiences right into your home.
DALI’s patented SMC (Soft Magnetic Compound) is used in the OBERON 9’s
midrange/woofer magnet systems to provide improved flux linearity, reduced
magnetic hysteresis and a significant reduction in harmonic distortion. These
SMC benefits result in longer listening pleasure, and excellent low-level
detail."
The Oberon series has apparently been a big success for the company. These are nice looking, designed apparently for wide dispersion, hopefully making them easy to place in normal rooms. The DALIs I've heard at shows have always sounded decent to me, caveats assumed in those conditions. With companies mostly announcing price rises (Harbeth up another 10% shortly thanks to Brexit) it's good to see a nicely finished Danish floorstander for this price. Of course, the proof is in the hearing...more info here:
