In their review, Hi-Fi News highlights how KUPID brings DALI’s core Sound Design Principles low distortion, wide dispersion and easy placement to a compact, lifestyle-friendly design. Despite its small dimensions, the speaker is praised for offering a level of musical engagement that clearly exceeds expectations.
The reviewer points to KUPID’s rich and expressive midrange, confident handling of rhythm and timing, and its ability to convey warmth and coherence across a wide range of music. From electronic and pop to jazz, classical and world genres, KUPID is described as creating a strong emotional connection with the music at everyday listening levels.
Hi-Fi News also notes the practical versatility of KUPID. Its compact size allows for placement on shelves, desks or walls, while the selection of contemporary finishes including bold colour options is recognised as a thoughtful response to modern interiors and changing listening habits.
In its verdict, Hi-Fi News explains why KUPID earned its 'Outstanding Product' award, concluding that the speaker benefits from being designed by an experienced team, allowing a relatively simple construction to deliver far more musical enjoyment than is typically expected from a compact ‘lifestyle’ loudspeaker.
We would like to thank Hi-Fi News, Jamie Biesemans and Paul Miller for the award and the thorough review.
