ENGINEERED IN DENMARK
Highest standards of design, durability, comfort and sound quality
DALI IO headphones are a true DALI product, designed and engineered to the same fundamental principles and attention to detail as any other DALI loudspeaker. Every component meets the highest standards of design, durability, comfort, functionality and - most importantly - sound quality. With the DALI IO headphone series, we had a clear goal: they should deliver the best possible sound quality and be extremely comfortable to wear – even when used for hours on end.
AUTHENTIC SOUND
Benefitting from decades of sound design
With DALI IO headphones, you benefit from four decades of world-class Hi-Fi loudspeaker design. With the IO-6, our goal was to create the most natural and authentic sound possible and to reproduce music exactly as the artist intended it. We believe we succeeded.
50 MM DRIVER
Reproducing the smallest details with crystal clear clarity
We understand the importance of a high-performance driver. That's why the IO-6 features a high quality, custom designed driver with a large 50 mm diaphragm and optimised neodymium magnet system. The result is low distortion, minimal colouration and accurate dynamics throughout the entire frequency range.
ACTIVE NOISE CANCELLATION
Multi-mode ANC for any situation
The IO-6's closed-back design uses natural passive noise isolation (PNI) to block out unwanted noise, but it has its limits. With the IO-6, we’ve therefore added active noise cancellation to block out low frequency noise for an even more enjoyable listening experience. With three ANC modes, you can also tailor it to your situation, so whether you're relaxing at home or on your daily commute, IO-6 is the perfect choice.
BATTERY LIFE
Best-in-class 30 hours of playback
Our advanced 1,100 mAh lithium-ion battery delivers up to a best-in-class 30-hour battery life on a single charge, even with active noise cancellation enabled. And with battery level LEDs and a voice prompt to tell you how much charge you have left, you never need to run out of power./DALI-IO_street_skater-01_slide_1920x640.jpg)

FAQ
See all FAQ's-
ANC is part of the amplification chip. This chip is active, whether or not ANC is activated. So you wont experience much difference with ANC turned off.
-
Both headphones have been tuned almost identically, so you won't hear any noticeable difference.
-
This can happen if the power button get toggled ON/OFF/ON too quickly. Try turn the headphone off( listen to the voice saying "power off", and restart the headphone
-
The Battery level management has some tollerance, so even a fully charged battery may indicate 90%. you shouldnt worry.
-
Windows 10 default Bluetooth® setting is ”Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power”., please untick this setting.
-
Using headphones while wearing glasses, may introduce a leak not allowing the earpad to make a close seal around the head. A leak will result in reduced noice isolation , ANC and bass level. It depends on the individual design of the glasses frame whether a leak is introduced or not.

All ear pads get worn over time. So we designed the ear pads for the DALI IO headphones for quick and easy user replacement.
