REDUCING DISTORTION
DALI’s patented SMC (Soft Magnetic Compound). The OBERON ON-WALL C’s 5¼” bass/midrange driver features our proprietary fine paper pulp and reinforced wood fibre composite diaphragm, whose stiff, lightweight structure helps to reduce unwanted distortion. We further reduce distortion by using an advanced, electrically non-conductive, copper-coated aluminium voice-coil wire and our unique SMC (Soft Magnet Compound) magnet technology. Materials like these significantly reduce the effect of distortion-producing mechanisms inherent in moving-coil driver design.
CLASS D AMPLIFICATION
Reproducing the smallest detail with clarity and accuracy. The OBERON ON-WALL C power amplification comprises two 50 watt-peak, closed-loop, Class D power amplifiers chosen specifically for their sound quality and dynamic ability. One amplifier powers the high-frequency driver, while the other powers the bass/mid drivers. The 100 dB signal-to-noise ratio of the power amplifiers ensures that even the smallest detail in a quiet musical passage is reproduced with clarity and accuracy.
LIGHTWEIGHT SOFT DOME
Increased sensitivity and power handling with reduced distortion. The OBERON ON-WALL C high-frequency driver is a damped textile, soft dome tweeter featuring an oversized, unusually light 29 mm diaphragm and voice-coil. They work together to increase sensitivity and power handling, and to reduce distortion. They also enable the driver to operate at lower frequencies than typical smaller tweeters for more latitude in the crossover design.
INNOVATIVE CABINET DESIGN
Enhancing bass performance. The OBERON ON-WALL C cabinet is constructed from CNC-machined, high strength MDF panels finished in a variety of wood-effect or matt white laminates. The cabinet’s dual rear panel reflex ports exit parallel to the wall, using the interplay between the ports and wall surface to enhance the bass performance. This innovative solution is also the reason for the OBERON ON-WALL C’s unusually shallow cabinet.
