THE ABSOLUTE PINNACLE

Musical indulgence like never before

The absolute pinnacle of the EPICON series, the EPICON 8 delivers a dramatically rich and detailed sound that will blow your mind and captivate your senses. The loudspeaker is the result of a passionate, tireless quest to reach perfection. Prepare yourself for musical indulgence like never before – and for a beautifully statuesque design, your guests will envy.

ELIMINATE DISTORTION

Soft Magnetic Compound

For years, designing magnet systems has been a DALI speciality. For the EPICON 8, we decided to challenge the highest performance standards and to take magnet system design further than ever before. The answer turned out to be a Soft Magnetic Compound (SMC) material that offers exactly the right physical properties: Very high magnetic conductivity and very low electrical conductivity. The result is a dramatic reduction in distortion caused by mechanical loss in the magnet system.

HYBRID TWEETER

A transparent and solid rendering

The finest DALI hybrid tweeter module is employed in the EPICON 8, for a transparent and solid rendering of even the most subtle high-frequency details. The module consists of a newly developed 29 mm ultra-lightweight dome tweeter and a 10 x 55 mm ribbon tweeter, by working in unison they form the ideal high-frequency solution. It features an extremely smooth and wide horizontal dispersion – one of our sound design trademarks.

WOOFER

Manufactured at the DALI headquarters in Denmark

DALI EPICON 8 woofers are not only developed - but also manufactured at the DALI headquarters in Denmark. At DALI, we believe in designs based on low mechanical loss, and we were among the first to insist on controlling the frequency response through carefully balanced designs. Our wood fibre technology has proven to be a key in reproducing the finest details and dynamics in the music with very low loss of information.

CABINET

Rigid construction with a beautiful real-wood veneer

The cabinet is an important part of the entire speaker system, working both as an acoustic tuned ‘spring’ for the drivers, as well as getting rid of reaction force (resonant) energy. Rigid construction is necessary to optimize the working environment for both woofer and tweeter. The finish of the EPICON cabinet is a beautiful real-wood veneer that is lacquered a total of 10 times. In between each application of lacquer, each layer is hand polished to ensure a deep, high gloss and elegant surface.
