What’s New?

DALI OPTICON 1 MK1 vs DALI OPTICON 1 MK2

DALI OPTICON 1 MK1 vs DALI OPTICON 1 MK2

The OPTICON 1 MK2 version is an upgraded model of the original Opticon 1, featuring improvements in several areas. Here’s a breakdown of the key differences:

  • Refreshed Design: To match DALI’s latest product lineup OPTICON 1 MK2 includes a sleeker front baffle design, new colour options and slightly refined finish as well as improved internal bracing to reduce unwanted resonances.  
  • Upgraded Tweeter & Bass Drivers: In order to improve sound performance, the OPTICON 1’s tweeters dome has been improved for better high-frequency extension and smoother performance. DALI have also made refinements to their woofer by improving the cone material and a new motor system for more precise movement, leading to improved midrange clarity and bass definition.
  • Crossover Redesign: The OPTICON 1 MK2’s crossover has been revised to provide better integration between the drivers, resulting in a smoother, more cohesive soundstage.

True 2-way Compact Performer

High Performance Audio

High Performance Audio

The OPTICON 1 MK2 builds on the impressive MK1 series to create a true 2-way compact performer. Designed for small to medium-sized rooms, this high-performance bookshelf speaker includes DALI’s signature wood fibre cone and patented low-loss SMC magnet system, delivering low distortion, minimal colouration and high power handling. The OPTICON 1 MK2 is fully assembled at our production facilities in Denmark using components produced in-house or sourced from the best local specialist manufacturers and further afield.

More Than Music

Reflex-Loaded Speaker

Reflex-Loaded Speaker

As a reflex-loaded speaker, the OPTICON 1 MK2 channels unused acoustic output generated by the woofer to extend low-frequency bandwidth and increase power handling. Using a dual flare shape that minimises turbulence at the entry and exit flares, the OPTICON 1 MK2 brings port design into the realm of aerodynamics.

Reducing Distortion with SMC

Patented SMC

Patented SMC

The OPTICON 1 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.

Oversized Tweeter For Better Performance

Lightweight Soft Dome Tweeter

Lightweight Soft Dome Tweeter

The lightweight 29mm soft dome tweeter is derived from DALI’s CALLISTO C series and offers significant advances over the tweeters used in the OPTICON MK1 series. The relatively small increase in diameter over the previous 28mm tweeter results in lower distortion, higher power handling and extended low-frequency response. The 29mm tweeter is also used throughout the OPTICON MK2 series for consistent tonal character and dispersion characteristics, for example in a multichannel surround setup.

Low Loss, Low Distortion & Low Colouration

Wood Fibre Woofer

Wood Fibre Woofer

The 4¾" OPTICON 1 MK2 bass/midrange driver has been designed according to DALI’s sound design principles of low loss, low distortion and low colouration. The ideal driver plays only what the amplifier supplies... nothing is added, nothing is taken away. Every OPTICON 1 MK2 component is carefully designed to contribute towards this goal, including the paper pulp and wood fibre cone, which ensures minimal break-up resonance for a high resolution midrange and precise, coherent bass.



High Quality Guaranteed

Manufactured In Denmark

Manufactured In Denmark

With a 25mm thick front baffle and extra internal bracing, the OPTICON 1 MK2 cabinet is extremely rigid and practically eliminates panel resonance. To ensure the best possible quality product, DALI manufacture and test OPTICON MK2 series speakers at their production facilities in central Denmark, carrying out everything from cutting and routing of the wood laminate panels to installing the drivers and crossover.
