- Dali V-16 F is your most powerful and precise subwoofer to date
- 1.500W (2.500W peak) with 18Hz low -reflection ports
- £ 4,499 / € 4,999 (around $ 5,970 / AU $ 9,300.
Dali has presented the most powerful subwoofer that has ever built, with up to 2,500W of maximum power thanks to its class D. Amp according to the company presents the strongest magnet ever connected with a Dali speaker, and is specifically made for entertainment audiophile systems at home.
While this particular model is an flagship underwater with a price label to coincide, Dali hinted during its launch that the technology and design presented here can reach smaller and less expensive options (relatively speaking) in the future.
Power and precision
According to Dali, although the new V-16 F is able to fill the largest rooms with amazing levels of Graves, it has “all necessary precision and control to function in any context of the audio system and even in small rooms … put in a nutshell, the V-16 F is the most powerful and less compromised subwoofer that we have ever built.”
The V-16 F driver has been created to defeat what Dali calls “the main enemies of serious reproduction precise”: distortion and compression. The V-16 F is designed to minimize the losses of both things, and Dali says that his ability “to accelerate large air volumes to convert electrical signals into serious tangible, palpables and room full of rooms is not precedent.”
The driver is a 16 -inch (406 mm) unit with the largest surface diaphragm design of the constant surface to date, driven by a 1500W class D amplifier (2500W PEK) Class D. The constant surface rodeon, CSS for abbreviation, is different from the surroundings of the usual controller: Use positive and negative alternative regions of staggered sections and curves to maintain the area of the same surface distortion and suppress resonance. Dali said this is the only use of this technology in a subwoofer to date, although it has been used in other types of speakers.
There are four reflex ports of continuous flashes tuned to very low 18Hz, and his work is to reduce the need for a low -frequency driver’s excursion, again to reduce distortion. They also mean that the driver spends more time close to the position of the rest, where his damping and strength of the engine are more linear; Dali explains that this means a more consistent and precise low frequency performance in volume levels.
They are openly open, but the V-16F is supplied with optional port plugs if that best suits their listening space or preferences.
Dali V-16 F will be available in July 4,499 / € 4,999 (around $ 5,970 / AU $ 9,300.
