PHANTOM S-180

The DALI PHANTOM S-180 is a full-size in-wall speaker. Combining an 8" wood fibre driver, 10" passive carbon fibre radiator and a rotatable hybrid tweeter module, the PHANTOM S-180 delivers coherent, clean and detailed sound in a cabinet that fits into almost any standard wall.

Wide Dispersion

Wide dispersion DALI speakers ensure a larger sweet spot to enjoy the best sound experience. Especially for in-wall and in-ceiling speakers.

Slim Cabinet

With a depth of 100-103 mm, our slim-profile DALI PHANTOM speakers fit conveniently into most standard walls.

Patented SMC

Our patented Soft Magnetic Compound (SMC) minimises colouration and distortion, compared with conventional drive design.

10" Passive Radiator

Includes the high-performance 10" carbon fibre passive bass reflex woofer from our high-end DALI SUB P-10 DSS subwoofer.

NO-COMPROMISE AUDIO

Innovative technologies for full frequency response

The slim DALI PHANTOM S-180 in-wall loudspeaker offers floorstanding loudspeaker performance without sacrificing valuable living room space. Delivering no-compromise in-wall audio performance using proven speaker technologies, the S-180 includes our signature wood fibre cone, low-loss rubber surrounds, solid MDF front baffle, patented hybrid tweeter module and our innovative SMC magnet design.

LOW-PROFILE CABINET

Extremely compact for a serious in-wall speaker

The compact design of the PHANTOM S-180 fits into most standard walls. At only 103 mm deep, it's slim yet has the perfect inner volume for the woofer to perform at its best. The solid MDF cabinet provides a robust platform for the drivers, while the dogleg mounting system makes installation simple. When installed, the elegant, extruded aluminium frame and magnet mounted front grille integrate the PHANTOM S-180 elegantly into any room.

INSTALLATION

Optimising the hybrid tweeter module for maximum performance

When installing the PHANTOM S-180 into a wall, the ribbon tweeter should be placed at ear height. By placing the hybrid tweeter module at the bottom of the speaker, the S-180 can be installed higher up in line with larger wall-mounted TVs. The dome tweeter has also been rotated for a more seamless handover between the tweeter module and woofer, resulting in better integration with the room and improved bass performance.

PATENTED SMC

Reducing distortion with Soft Magnetic Compound

The 8" primary woofer features our patented SMC magnet system developed originally for the EPICON series. SMC has the unique ability to deliver very high magnetic conductivity and very low electrical conductivity, which dramatically lowers distortion while delivering all the benefits of a traditional magnet system.

HYBRID TWEETER

The master of wide dispersion

The PHANTOM S-180 features our trademark hybrid tweeter technology. Combining a 28 mm soft dome tweeter with a high-performance ribbon tweeter, high frequencies are rendered with amazing detail and a wide dispersion pattern that outperforms all other tweeter technologies. The hybrid tweeter module can also be rotated when installed as a centre speaker in a multichannel setup.

OPTIMISED WOOFERS

Combining technologies for maximum bass/midrange response

The specially developed primary 8" woofer is optimised for both bass and midrange performance, featuring our signature wood fibre cone and patented SMC magnet system developed for the EPICON series. The integrated 10" passive bass reflex woofer is based on the passive radiator from our high-end SUB P-10 DSS subwoofer. By using the same aluminium chassis and soft surround carbon fibre cone, the passive radiator reaches deep down into the true lower frequencies to deliver a believable large-box speaker sound in a very slim cabinet.

WIDE DISPERSION

Easy integration in any room

All DALI speakers are designed around the principle of wide dispersion, which optimises off-axis listening to give a larger sweet spot and a better audio experience throughout a room. This principle is the perfect solution for PHANTOM S series speakers, which are mounted flush with the surface of a wall.

"DALI's high-end in-wall system is the ideal setup for home cinema enthusiasts who like their speakers to be heard but not seen. The company has packaged its sonic knowhow into a series of discrete models to deliver a solid, detailed soundstage every bit as immersive as that developed by regular loudspeakers."
"The front soundscape from the two S-280 and the S-180 proves to be homogeneous and spatially extremely dense from the beginning of the film. [...] The characteristic of the PHANTOM set is the absolutely closed soundscape. [...] There are also no acoustic "gaps" between the S-180 in front and the two S-280. "
