from HiFi-Klubben Summary: I had been looking for a new pair of speakers for some time, since we have bought a new house. The livingroom now is 50m2, which was a little too big for my old KEF C-60 Serie. My first priority for speakers is bass. I have to feel the bass deeply. So far my old KEF has done a fine job on this matter, only in bigger rooms the bass was not sufficient. So I had a few speakers I wanted to try: KEF IQ7, JBL E-100, Jamo D-590, B&W DM604 S3 and Dali Ikon 6. The B&W speakers are by far the most expencive ones, and I must admit also the speakers I wanted the most. Why? I dont know, I've always had some kind of fetish for B&W, even though I've never owened a pair. So if you can imagine the other speakers had some convincing to do, to make me disregard B&W.
I tested them all very carefully, and listened to them more than once. The result was a big dissapointment to me. The B&W's never lived up to my expectations. There simply was'nt enough bass. The overall soundpicture was without a doubt one class above the rest, but the bass.....where was that? So the guy at Hifi-Klubben introduced me to Dali Concept 10. BOOOM there they were. I knew immediately that this were the speakers for me. In this pricerange you have to look hard and long to find a more allround speaker with loads of bass. They simply do the job. Pop, classic, rock, jazz, you name it, they deliver! And my old Luxman amp 2x60W has no problem handling them.
I now have, in my opinion, the best speakers money can buy under 2000 USD. Highly recommendable! Strengths: Bass - loads of it! Overall sound picture. Quality. Finishing. Does not require high end amp. Weaknesses: A little big perhaps for some people (not me though) Not real veneer. Otherwise nothing. Similar Products Used: KEF C-60
