The components and techniques utilized in the Helicon only confirm this impression. Multi-layer MDF enclosures, cast chassis drive units, the veryspecial DALI® Tweeter Module, hand-assembled and hard-wired crossover networks in separate compartments and all the techniques and theories developed and finely tuned by DALI over the years.
Even the name Helicon...
was not chosen at random, but carefully selected for its close association with the art of music. Helicon is a mountain range in Greece occupying a very special place in ancient Greek mythology. According to the legends, this is where the patron goddesses for science and art, the MUSES (hence MUSic),
had their home. There were nine of them, all daughters of Zeus the god, each representing an art form or science.
The ”Magic Moments” slogan is at the core of DALI’s purpose: the ultimate in music reproduction. The unique principles that DALI incorporates into each loudspeaker, serve to extract every bit of information from the source and present it at its most breathtaking. There is no purpose in revealing all information if the result is clinical or analytical. This is why we strive to preserve the beauty and integrity of the performance, rather than taking it apart and laying it bare. The difference is striking, and the combination of resolution
and exhilaration is difficult to master.
The magic result is so essential to us. ”Magic Moments” perfectly describes what we strive to present to you. The techniques and design features of the Helicon range are all of the highest standard.
HELICON SPEAKERS
DALI HELICON 800
The Helicon 800 is the largest of the Helicon Series. Like all of the Helicon´s, the 800 features low loss paper/woodfibre drivers and the Hybrid Tweeter Module. This ensures that the listener will experience the subtlest musical details, even at low listening levels.
DALI HELICON 400
The Helicon 400 is the impressive "smaller" floor standing speaker in the Helicon Series - standing only in the shadow of the great Helicon 800 - but even in the shadow it shines.
DALI HELICON 300
If your preference is compact stand-mounted speakers - and there are advantages compared to floorstanding loudspeakers - your choice is the Helicon 300.
DALI HELICON C200
For the ultimate stereo experience you have W200, Helicon 300, 400 or 800 - but if you want to go surround with your Helicon you will need the C200 (C for center) speaker.
DALI HELICON S600
The Helicon S600 (S for subwoofer) is designed to visually and acoustically match the Helicon Series.
DALI HELICON W200
The W200 is designed and tuned as an on-wall alternative to the Helicon 300. A pair of W200 on-wall matched with a subwoofer deliver the same sound reproduction as a pair of Helicon 300 or 400.
DALI HELICON S600 MK2
The HELICON S600 (S stands for subwoofer) is designed to visually and acoustically match the HELICON Series. The enclosure is made according to the same principles as the other HELICON speakers – very strong laminated panels, veneered and high gloss polished. The beautifully curved top can also act as a perfect cradle for the HELICON C200 center speaker.
