New flagship tower of the well-regarded high performance OBERON Series

PICKERING, ONTARIO, CANADA, MARCH 2, 2021 – Lenbrook Americas today launched the DALI OBERON 9, the new flagship tower of the highly popular OBERON Series. The OBERON 9 (US MSRP $2,499/pr) is offered in Black Ash and Dark Walnut finishes and will be available in late March.  

With a dedicated 7” midrange and two long-throw 9” woofers it offers outstanding dynamic capabilities most speakers can only dream of. The OBERON 9 is a true three-way design that combines ultimate refinement and startling detail with effortless power handling to bring genuine concert and cinema experiences right into your home.

DALI’s patented SMC (Soft Magnetic Compound) is used in the OBERON 9’s midrange/woofer magnet systems to provide improved flux linearity, reduced magnetic hysteresis and a significant reduction in harmonic distortion. These SMC benefits result in longer listening pleasure, and excellent low-level detail.

The OBERON 9’s enclosure is designed to optimise rigidity and minimise panel resonance while providing an excellent foundation for the drivers. The OBERON 9 woofer/midrange driver cones are made from a mix of paper and wood fibre that provide a stiff, lightweight and well-behaved structure that reproduces micro details with high accuracy.

The pair of 9″ drivers have a combined membrane area that is 12% larger than a 12″ woofer. This allows a higher maximum sound pressure level, which leads to an effortless reproduction of the dynamics in the music. The OBERON 9 is coupled with a new larger soft dome tweeter.

The oversized 29mm soft dome membrane uses an ultra-lightweight weave fabric and is optimised for a larger bandwidth in its lower frequency area. This ensures the optimal handover from the midrange woofer to the tweeter, creating a well-balanced, coherent upper midrange. Compared to most soft dome tweeters on the market, the DALI dome material is less than half the weight (0.060 mg/mm2).

The large but elegant cabinet delivers exceptional deep bass and large room performance. However, this speaker is surprisingly delicate and will impress with its ability to render any music or movie soundtrack naturally and lifelike even at lower volumes.

The driver materials, crossover design and geometry used in the OBERON 9 has been selected to achieve a wide dispersion pattern. This ensures a well-integrated sound, even when listening at a significant off-axis angle. An added benefit is seriously reduced harmonic distortion and diffractions causing frequency distortion.

DALI OBERON 9 offers exceptional performance for music and movie lovers alike while its wide dispersion pattern makes placement much easier than with rival speakers. With its distinctive Danish design, the OBERON 9 features an elegant aluminium base to reduce resonance.

“Since its launch, the OBERON Series has been a runaway success”, says Jeff Earl, Product Manager for Lenbrook Americas. “It’s only natural that OBERON 9 was added to the already diverse series to offer a highly dynamic and powerful option.”
