Featuring a custom 1.15-inch soft dome tweeter and a 7-inch wood-fiber woofer, these speakers produce deep bass, clear mids, and wide dispersion for effortless placement. Ideal for medium-sized rooms, they offer fatigue-free listening with a stylish design available in multiple finishes. ## Description Larger-Than-Standard Tweeters and Drivers Help Dali Oberon 3 Bookshelf Loudspeakers Play with Big Sound, Deep Bass, Gripping Dynamics, and Proper ScaleBigger-than-conventional dimensions in tweeter and driver size in the Dali Oberon 3 bookshelf loudspeaker translate into larger soundstages, deeper bass, greater dynamics, and crisper midrange frequencies. Combining the advantages of tower designs with the compact dimensions of a stand-mount speaker, Oberon 3 offers stellar coherency, timing, and integration – as well as look-twice aesthetics and four available finishes. It's also engineered to deliver wide dispersion patterns, meaning that even if you listen off-axis, you'll enjoy audiophile performance marked by excellent imaging and focus. With no need to be in a toed-in position (a hallmark of all Dali speakers), Oberon 3 also benefits from reduced harmonic distortion and distortion-causing diffractions.The factors responsible for Oberon 3's overachieving performance directly relate to its 1.15-inch soft-dome tweeter and SMC-based seven-inch wood-fiber woofer, the very same found in the floor-standing Oberon 7 model. The tweeter is custom-made especially for Oberon Series and generates high pressure with less excursion, keeping voice-coil motion to a minimum. It also weighs less than those from the competition, while its front plate boasts similar geometry to the company's more advanced units. With the tweeter providing extended frequency response and low coloration, its complementary woofer – with a 15% larger membrane dimension than the typical 6.5-inch woofer – plays with high accuracy and control. A single-wire crossover and solid, resonance-defeating cabinet – lined with acoustic damping material located along the sides, top, and bottom – combine with rear-panel bass ports and an advanced motor system to complete a model that aces positioning, sonic, and decor tests.Ideal for medium-sized spaces where they can si Review: Dali Oberon 3 -- The best you can get under $2000 -- bar none! - These speakers are the best overall value you can get under $2000 for two-channel music enjoyment. They are musical, exciting, dynamic and balanced. The soundstage and imaging is incredible, and placement has never been easier. On top of everything else, they have a 7" bass driver where most other brands top out at 6.5" drivers. These speakers allow you to listen until you decide to do those other things life calls on you to do; in other words they don't tire you out! I have owned the Wharfedale Diamonds and Evo 4.1, Elac B6.2, and SVS Prime as well as some others that are not worth mentioning. I still own Elac Uni-Fi UB52, Polk RTi-A3, and Pioneer BS-22. All of these speakers have their own good qualities but none of them -- absolutely none of them -- can stand up to the Dali Oberon 3 sound. Of all those speakers mentioned above I would have to say that the Elac Uni-Fi would come closest to producing a great musical experience; they just aren't lively enough neither do they have that big soundstage presence that the Dali does. I salute Dali for their commitment to excellence and for producing a speaker system that is a pleasure to listen to all the time and that didn't cause me to take out a second mortgage to afford. Incidentally, I now have two pairs of these great speakers! I am preparing to go to the next level with Dali because if these are this good, I can only imagine what the next level must be like. Review: Smooth Operators - I've been running these for around a month and feel I have a good understanding of their sound. Little background: I've had a pair of Klipsch RP-600Ms for around a year and, while I love the dynamic sound, I found them a bit too fatiguing in long listening sessions. Because of this my goal was to find a pair of speakers that retain the dynamics while providing a smoother, less fatiguing delivery. I purchased these DALIs based on a recommendation and couldn't be more pleased. In my experience they take about 20-30 hours of break-in to start blooming, but once you get passed this they sound fantastic! They have a sound that I can best describe as lush. It's detailed without sounding rigid and a bit forward without sounding bright. The tweeter and driver maintain great cohesion and delivery a very balanced, smooth sound that never gets fatiguing. I can listen to these for hours on end without getting tired. They're also fantastic with off-axis performance and are designed to be pointed straight forward. Because of this I found them much easier to position than my old speakers, which were a bit finicky with placement. This is super important to me because my listening room is small and I don't have a lot of room to experiment with placement. I currently have them paired with a Rega IO amplifier and cannot be more pleased with the sound! ## Features - Frequency Range (+/-3 dB): 47Hz-26,000Hz - Sensitivity (2,83 V/1 m): 87dB - Recommended Amplifier Power: 25W-150W - Recommended Placement: Shelf or stand - Dimensions (HWD): 13.8" x 7.9" x 12.4" ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07H2LW93T | | Audio Driver Size | 7 Inches | | Audio Driver Type | Dynamic Driver | | Best Sellers Rank | #81,905 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #178 in Bookshelf Speakers | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Smartphone, Tablet, MP3 Player, Desktop, Television, Projector, Laptop | | Control Method | Voice | | Customer Package Type | FFP | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (83) | | Date First Available | September 14, 2018 | | Included Components | Rubber Feet, Manual, Grille | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Is Waterproof | FALSE | | Item Weight | 18 pounds | | Item model number | 230033 | | Manufacturer | DALI | | Material | Wood, Fabric, Aluminium | | Model Name | Oberon 3 | | Number Of Circuits | 3 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Product Dimensions | 12"D x 8"W x 8"H | | Recommended Uses For Product | For Music Players | | Speaker Size | 7 Inches | | Speaker Type | Bookshelf | | Special Feature | Hi Res Audio | | Subwoofer Connectivity Technology | Wired | | Subwoofer Diameter | 6.5 Inches | | Surround Sound Channel Configuration | 3.0 | | Tweeter Diameter | 1.13 Inches | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Type | Limited | | Woofer Diameter | 7 Inches | ## Product Details - **Audio Output Mode:** Stereo - **Brand:** DALI - **Connectivity Technology:** Optical - **Mounting Type:** Shelf Mount - **Speaker Maximum Output Power:** 150 Watts ## Images ![Oberon 3 Bookshelf Speaker - Black (Pair) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61tdTA5LaQL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dali Oberon 3 -- The best you can get under $2000 -- bar none! *by 4***5 on January 20, 2022* These speakers are the best overall value you can get under $2000 for two-channel music enjoyment.
