DALI OPTICON 2 MK2 (Tobacco Oak)
Bookshelf Speakers Per Pair
£949
Sleek, Scandinavian design meets a full-bodied sound, with the DALI Opticon 2 MK2.
The classic all-rounder
Ideal for small to medium-sized rooms, DALI designed the Opticon 2 MK2 to be as flexible as possible. Able to operate effectively from just 10cm from a rear wall, the Opticon 2 MK2 makes a room friendly choice. Alternatively, if you've got the space, the 2's are just as happy at up to 80cm from the back wall.
Improved drive units for the finest sound
Featuring low-loss, wood fibre SMS woofers that are found in DALI's reference grade speakers and a brand new soft dome tweeter derived from the Callisto range, the Opticon 2 MK2 sounds better than ever. Designed for precision and accuracy of sound, the Opticon lets you hear the music exactly as the artist intended.
Dual Flare port for smooth, powerful bass
MK2 Opticon models feature a revised, Dual Flare port. Redesigning the port has delivered an optimised bass response, without creating undue turbulence that can distort the sound. The result is a richer bass at all volume levels.
Made in Denmark. Assembled in pairs
Rather than 'buying in' cabinets, DALI produces the Opticon cabinets in-house. This means they can be sure of the quality and consistency of build. The solid cabinets are designed for low levels of resonance giving low distortion and help to promote a natural sound. Assembled in pairs, the manufacturing process ensures the speakers are as closely matched as possible – meaning you get evenly balanced sound and the best visual match.
Improved style
The Opticon MK2 has a fresh new style. Cleaner and more minimalist than before, the Opticon 2 MK2 reflects its Scandinavian heritage. Available in a choice of Satin Black, Tobacco Oak or Satin White, there’s a finish to suit every décor.
Get a standmount speaker that punches hard, with the DALI Opticon 2 MK2.

Exists for a reason
It's a bit early to review such new speakers with so little time to run in. However here we go. I fetched them out of the box and thought hmm they are a bit homely, I hadn't noticed in the store because of the dark listening room, plastic baffles, visible screws, hmm. Ok let's move on to sound. To my ears, tuned for so many years to metal dome tweeters, my first impressions were meh, they are a bit too soft. But as I listened and over a couple of days of running in I started to understand, where as metal tweeters shouted loud and clear these sang, instruments are warm and natural and yet brass keeps it's hardness just like it should. I now know why these speakers exist, and why I bought them. They are not the beautiful party girl everyone wants to take home, these speakers respect the music, care about it and do to it proud. These speaker may be homely but put the covers on an yeah they are not so bad, feed them acoustic folk or jazz, maybe some instrumental rock, and wow they sound good. Those shouting party girls can stay on the shelf with all the other wanna-bees and think-they-ares. These Dalis came home with me and I can see us starting a new long term relationship, more of a wife that bit on the side. I hope my husband doesn't mind.

Detailed high performing speakers.
I bought these beauties a few months back and have been messing around with room acoustics and finding the sweet spot with a subwoofer—the Opticon 2 mk2 are just what I was looking for.
My B&W's 606s were too bright, and it hurt my ears when listening to certain tracks. The Opticon 2's are warmer sounding with great detail. I now have a subwoofer set up with them, and it sounds amazing. The non-metallic tweeter really suits my ears and doesn't seem to 'ring' as much as the previous pair. The only downside is that they show up badly recorded tracks!! I'm in audio heaven if I play audiophile quality or beautifully produced tracks.
Big thanks to Dave and all the others at Richer Sounds Liverpool for having the patience to let me listen to several speakers for a few hours. :)

Great speakers, good price, fast delivery
Ordered on a Thursday, delivered to Aberdeenshire on Saturday, £200 off RRP. What's not to like?! Oh yes, they sound fab too. A worthwhile upgrade on the Dali Spektor 2s (although it must be said they also sound amazing for their size and price tag).

I simply have to express my enthusiasm about the listening experiences with these speakers, although I don't usually tend to review a product.... I am completely surprised and very impressed by the sound! A real listening pleasure!
