DALI Opticon LCR MK2 On-Wall Speaker
The OPTICON LCR MK2 combines the best of all the OPTICON MK2 technologies in a low profile, wall mounted multipurpose enclosure that can work wonders in left channel, right channel and center channel roles. The OPTICON LCR MK2 has everything covered – from conventional stereo through TV audio to multi-channel home theatre applications. Its ingenious, wall assisted reflex port system works in synergy with its 6½” Wood Fiber diaphragm, SMC magnet bass/midrange driver and its rotatable hybrid tweeter module to deliver an all round performance that truly belies its compact
dimensions. With airy high frequencies, expressive midrange and surprisingly extended bass, the OPTICON LCR MK2 is an on-wall speaker that delivers genuine hi-fi performance
A flexible stereo & multichannel speaker
The OPTICON LCR MK2 incorporates the best technologies from the MK2 series in a low-profile, wall-mounted enclosure. Serving as a left, center or right-channel speaker – hence the name LCR – this multipurpose, wall-mounted surround speaker delivers genuine stereo and multichannel Hi-Fi performance with impressive high-frequencies, an expressive midrange and surprisingly extended bass.
PATENTED SMC
The OPTICON LCR MK2 driver magnet system consists of a large ferrite ring magnet surrounding a pole-piece manufactured entirely of the unique DALI SMC (Soft Magnetic Composite) material. The use of SMC greatly reduces mechanical distortion caused by hysteresis and eddy currents, resulting in a drastic reduction in third-order distortion for extended listening pleasure, a relaxed midrange and a surprising amount of detailing.
HYBRID TWEETER
Our signature hybrid tweeter module marries a 29 mm soft dome tweeter with a custom 17 x 45 mm planar element. Both drivers are mounted on a cast aluminum faceplate, which provides a solid platform for the drivers and incorporates dispersion control detailing for optimal delivery of the high frequencies for off-axis listening. Our hybrid tweeter offers the best of both worlds – the clarity, speed and dynamics of a dome tweeter with the very high-frequency detail and smooth finesse of a planar tweeter.
WOOD FIBER WOOFER
The 6½" bass driver has been designed according to our sound design principles of low loss, low distortion and low coloration. The ideal driver plays only what the amplifier supplies... nothing is added, nothing is taken away. Every component is carefully designed to contribute towards this goal, including the paper pulp and wood fiber cone, which ensures minimal break-up resonance for a high resolution midrange and precise, coherent bass.
HIGH QUALITY CABINET
With a 25 mm thick front baffle and extra internal bracing, the OPTICON LCR MK2 cabinet is extremely rigid and practically eliminates panel resonance. To ensure the best possible quality product, we manufacture and test OPTICON MK2 series speakers at our production facilities in central Denmark, carrying out everything from cutting and routing of the wood laminate panels to installing the drivers and crossover.
Excellent response across the audio spectrum. I’m using them in my surround setup for movies as well as stereo audio using an Arcam 41 preamp and Fosi mono amps. In a 9.1 system giving me the floor space I needed. I’ve tried other on wall speakers and these have beat them all for sound and esthetics. The Audio Factory prices can’t be beat all my speakers working without fault.
