I bought these little DALIs for my desktop system because I could not get the Spektor 1 in the color I wanted as its been discontinued. I had heard really good things about the Spektor 1 but took my chances on the 2 and I am glad I did. These speakers are just magical, luscious sounding. Not words I have ever used to describe speakers, but I will be buying some larger DALIs for my main system after this experience. Highly recommended!

Después de probar varias parejas de altavoces de otras marcas al final he decidido volver a Dalí ya que la claridad de sonido, el brillo en los agudos y la potencia y nitided de graves (sin ser exagerados) en unos altavoces de este tamaño me han convencido plenamente. Los utilizo con un Rega planar 3 y un ampli Kenwood de los 70, para escuchar sobre todo vinilos pop, soul, jazz y rock de los 60 y 70, pero también cosas de ahora, y son perfectos para cualquier época o estilo.

Value for money product, excellent service and support by the seller.

Delighted with these - got them under £200 in an "as new" amazon warehouse deal, but even at full price of £230 they'd be a bargain. They look sensational, either with grills on or off - old school plastic pegs rather than magnetic - so potentially a weak point in that I've had pegs snap off in speakers of old. I got the walnut pair in the deal, but I'd be tempted by the white for full price. They are partnered with electronics costing way way more than these did, and they don't sound out of place.Out of the box they sounded fantastic. Imaging and soundstage are incredible for the price. Please note that Dali recommends you don't angle/toe them in towards the listening position, and i would agree with that. I have them spaced 2m apart, about 30 cms from the rear wall on stands facing straight out into the room and they deliver a really 3 dimensional experience.. Everyone's listening is subjective, but these are "mellow" sounding to my ears, crystal clear of course, but not overly harsh on the top end treble - but that's also as much to do with the electronics your using them with.It's worth talking about Bass. I've read so many reviews with contradictory opinions about the bass response from these. I am going to say Bass is fantastic - its not thunderous and pumping, but it has deep and clear resonance - play something jazz related and you'll hear the fingers plucking the strings as if they were playing live in front of you. I was thinking i'd need to get a sub based on others reviews about low bass - to my ears a sub is now not necessary and might actually be counterproductive as these handle the bass response so well on their own. Again all of this is room/ear/placement/electronics dependent.A bit about the reason for choosing these. We recently moved house, and my listening room is smaller than previously and I had a pair of Floor standing that were just to big for the room - room is now 4m by 4 m approx - (medium/small double bedroom type size) with fairly low ceiling as (2.3 meters) The floor standers just sounded muddy and confused and boomby when cranked up and thin and flat at lower listening volume. They sounded fantastic in a room twice the size with a 3m plus ceiling - but not in the smaller room. Do yourself a favour, if you're in a room of about 20 sq m or less, get a pair of decent bookshelf speakers like these, it's counter intuitive, but you'll get better bass and a fuller sound in the room from a pair of Dali bookshelves (or other manufacturer) than from bigger speakers. Bigger is not better here.There is a reason why these are What Hi-fi product of the year for their price bracket. I've been using Q Acoustics for years for my speakers, and whilst i still think they are some of the best speakers you can buy at the price point - I have a pair of small 2010 series - their smallest and cheapest speaker the time (£100) i've had for years in another room which I will take with me to my grave (they are that good for the price i paid), these Dali Spektors are something special - i include the looks as well as the sound - they are magnificent.
