"Plenty of Weight and Warmth to Voices"
Taking center stage, the SPEKTOR VOKAL delivers clarity and depth to any movie. If you're looking for a great sounding, affordable center channel speakers that will exceed your expectations, the SPEKTOR VOKAL is the perfect match for you, whether you are planning to use it in a 3.1 or 5.1 surround system. It delivers detailed, dynamic, and powerful audio reproduction and are is an ideal choice with any of the three models in the SPEKTOR series: SPEKTOR 1, SPEKTOR 2, and SPEKTOR 6.
"There is plenty of weight and warmth to voices, giving dialogue a human element as well as keeping pace and delivering expression," reports What Hi-Fi? in an October 24, 2018 Five Star review of a SPEKTOR 5.1 home theater system that includes the SPEKTOR VOKAL. "It’s a balance that feels natural and unfussy, with rich treble. Snappy timing is still an eye-opener though. As we’re enveloped in an impressively spacious soundstage, effects flit from one side of the room to the other at pace, facilitating a true surround experience."
Getting Extraordinary Performance from a Speaker This Affordable
Getting this much performance from a speaker in this price range not only took all of DALI's experience and knowhow, but also hours and hours spent in the listening room, improving the driver and crossover designs to create the perfect audio performance.
The DALI SPEKTOR VOKAL, like all DALI loudspeakers, has been designed in accordance with the company's fundamental acoustic and electro-acoustic principles, and a strong belief that clarity and an authentic, honest sound reproduction will get you even closer to the full impact of a live music experience.
Superior Soft Dome Tweeter
SPEKTOR's soft dome tweeter offers best-in-class resolution with an extended frequency response, wide dispersion and low coloration. A clear heritage from DALI's high-end series, the tweeter is based on an ultra-lightweight weaved fabric, which weighs less than half of the market standard (0.056 mg/mm2).
The beauty of the soft dome tweeter is its impressive ability to play even the lowest parts of the high frequency range without any break-ups. This is crucial when handling the all-important hand-over from the woofer to the tweeter. Not having to push either the woofer or tweeter beyond what they do best results in a seamless transition and preservation of every detail in the mid-range frequencies. The geometry of the tweeter front plate near the dome has been optimized to create the perfect working conditions for the soft dome. The aim was to combine an extended frequency response with wide dispersion and low coloration.
Responsive Wood Fiber Cones
SPEKTOR's low-loss drivers uses a mix of low-mass paper cones with wood fiber reinforcement. The embedded wood fiber gives the surface an uneven structure, which dramatically minimizes the resonance of the surface. This creates the best possible reproduction of every detail in the audio signal.
The wood fiber cone structure is not only a DALI trademark, but a well proven technology. By crafting the cone membrane from a mix of fine-grained paper and wood fiber pulp, the cones become very rigid, very lightweight. Combining the well-behaving wood fiber cone with a low-loss surround and spider suspension results in the reproduction of even the smallest micro-detail in the signal – unfiltered and with high accuracy.
Low Signal Loss
By using only DALI designed and custom-built drivers, the need for frequency correction in the crossover is eliminated. This enables DALI to design an exact crossover, which together with carefully selected quality components ensures that the signal loss is close to zero.
Amplifier-Friendly Design
The amplifier-friendly design makes the SPEKTOR series a perfect fit for almost any of the amplifiers in its price category. Whether paired with a compact hi-fi, a stereo amplifier, or a surround receiver, SPEKTOR will bring out the best in your components, showing you just how good music and movies can sound.
DALI Wide Dispersion
Every speaker in the SPEKTOR series is built for wide dispersion, designed to fill the room with first-class audio and create the biggest possible sweet spot for your listening pleasure.
DALI makes it easy to integrate your loudspeakers into any room. Both the driver materials and geometry applied in the SPEKTOR series have been selected to achieve a wide dispersion pattern. You will experience a well-integrated sound, even when listening significantly off-axis. And, as you are often not seated directly in front of the loudspeaker when listening to music, this is important.
An added benefit is hugely reduced harmonic distortion and diffractions causing frequency distortion, as these will always be stronger in an on axis response. That is also the reason why all DALI speakers are not designed for toeing-in.
