    Best Product Award 2019-2020 – EISA


    "Room-Filling Sound with Deep Bass and Good Detail"

    The DALI OBERON 3 standmount/bookshelf speaker brings the best of both worlds. The cabinet size enables an optimal balance between inner volume for bass performance, and a compact appearance for small rooms, discreet audio setups or wall mounting. Combining the large sound of a floor-standing speaker with the compact design of a stand-mount, the OBERON 3 is the perfect fit for any stand-mount or shelf solution.

    "There’s lots to like about the Dali Oberon 3 speakers, not least that they are easy to enjoy. If you want a room-filling sound with deep bass and good detail, you should give these a listen," reports England's What Hi-fi? magazine, January 15, 2019

    The DALI OBERON system also won a Best Product 2019-2020 Award for "Best Buy Home Theater Speaker System" from EISA, the European Imaging and Sound Association, a unique association of nearly 60 trade publications from 29 European countries.

    "The resultant sound though the Oberon 3 was at once superbly defined, fluid, and robust," reports Michael Lavorgna, darko.audio, January 27, 2021. "While being surprised by bass response from standmount loudspeakers is no longer surprising, the Oberon 3’s way with bass-heavy music like 'Archangel' from Burial’s Untrue had enough oomph to seal the deal while offering up the concomitant noise and vocals with silky smooth appeal."

    Sophisticated Drivers

    With the launch of the DALI OBERON loudspeaker series, DALI has picked the best elements from its current speakers and brought them together in a series that delivers on audio quality, looks and versatility. The 29mm (1.14") ultra light-weight soft dome tweeter integrates seamlessly with the 7” wood fiber (SMC based) woofer for impressive highs, detailed and crisp mids and a surprising coherent and well-timed bass.

    The OBERON 3 is easy to integrate into any room. Both the driver materials and geometry applied in the OBERON 3 have been selected to achieve a wide dispersion pattern in the listening area. The same principles have been applied in the design of the crossover.

    As result, you will experience a well-integrated sound, even when listening at a significant off-axis angle. This is important as you are rarely seated directly in front of your loudspeakers when listening to music. An added benefit is seriously reduced harmonic distortion and diffractions causing frequency distortion, as these will always be stronger in an on-axis response. This is also the reason why all DALI speakers are not designed to be toed-in.

    Wood Fiber Cone

    The OBERON woofer features a wood fiber cone with a blend of fine grain paper pulp, reinforced with wood fibres, which creates a stiff, light-weight and well-behaving structure. In combination with a low-loss surround and spider suspension, this cone reproduces the micro details in the signal - unfiltered and with high accuracy.

    Patented SMC

    The iron pole piece of the OBERON woofer magnet is crowned by a patented SMC disk - minimizing the negative effects of the iron. The use of the SMC disk greatly reduces mechanical distortion, which lowers third order distortion. This allows for a longer listening pleasure, a relaxed midrange and a surprising amount of detail for its price class.

    Contemporary Design

    The rounded edges and rustic fabric of these new DALI front grilles add a lighter and more contemporary visual look to the OBERON series. This look is enhanced by the elegantly shaped aluminum base mounted on the two floor-standing models.

    Easy to Position

    The driver materials, crossover design and geometry applied in the OBERON series 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. This is why all DALI speakers are not designed to be toed-in.

    "The Oberon 3 is an excellent all-rounder which performs way above its price point. The fact that my wife now says the resident speakers sound somewhat “boring” shows that the Dali Oberon 3 deserve to be in your shortlist if you’re in the market for an engaging stand-mount speaker that is as musical as it is easy to use."
