The Kore represent the new top of the range from the Danish firm DALI, presented at the Munich High-End 2022.
Speakers of absolute reference to the highest European style and that incorporate a whole new generation of Technology created by the best DALI engineers.
With DALI KORE comes the evolution of SMC technology with which DALI revolutionized the market years ago, developing the greatest technological innovation in loudspeakers in decades. SMC (Soft Magnetic Compound) has low electrical conductivity and high magnetic conductivity. This makes it perform much better than iron, typically used in speaker magnetic systems, which when both values are high succumbs to sound alterations related to hysteresis. With KORE comes the 2nd generation of this technology with the SMC Balanced Drivers. DALI SMC Balanced Drivers have a double coil that reduces any possible signal loss and distortion. Additionally, the woofers are equipped with DALI's iconic maroon wood fiber cone.
The DALI hybrid tweeter module has also been a milestone in loudspeaker innovation. Combining the ability to reach the highest frequencies of the soft dome tweeter and the dispersion capacity of the ribbon tweeter, the hybrid tweeter module was created which, for the KORE speaker, has evolved to its 2nd Generation: the DALI Evo-K .
The dome tweeter is 35mm and manufactured by DALI itself, while the ribbon tweeter has also been redesigned. This update further improves integration with the woofers, reducing distortion to marginal levels.
When creating an acoustic enclosure for a flagship speaker there are two technical keys: that it offers good sound but without resonance, and that it offers firm support for the drivers. If with Epicon DALI he already completely dispensed with parallel surfaces to enhance the sound of the range while avoiding resonances, with KORE he has taken the curved design even further.
With the use of machined aluminum and high-end materials, it has also been possible to offer a rigid support for the drivers, allowing them to sound flaunting power without causing alterations in the sound.
Aesthetics cannot be neglected in a luxury speaker either, and KORE shows off the high level of its materials without any qualms. Its Amara Ebony varnish gives it a characteristic and luxurious print, while the black and gold details of the aluminum nuance it together with the emblematic scarlet color of the DALI wood fiber cones.
So much technology and power could not be contained in a small chassis. This column has a height of more than 1.70 with the decoupling tips included and a weight of 110 kilos per speaker.
To decouple them from the ground, they have their own 34 kg cement plinth base, which allows them to play at full power without resonances or alterations.
