Review 2 of 4

Price Paid:  $0.00

Summary:
Surpisingly sensitive speaker given its size. Good European drivers giving accurate sound. These speakers are able to play loud and soft with high consistancy. Advantage seen when Bi-Amped creating very good separation/location of instruments. I play jazz/rock, my wife classical, everybody happy. My old TDL's with 5 star started distorting at high volume whereas this Dali did not. Driving speakers with NAD C370/C270 combo.

Strengths:
Sounds Good or better compared to others 3 times the cost. Hi Efficiency.

Weaknesses:
Could be a touch more accurate imaging and sound staging.
