Detailed, musical sound ; Superb midrange clarity ; Two Sound Hub options

Matthew Jens auditions this new Danish-designed wireless active standmount speaker…
A balanced yet vibrant sounding performer, DALI's Oberon 1 C can't defy the laws of physics but has a good go all the same. It offers a larger performance than you'd expect, one which pushes sound out into the room for all to hear. There's a surprising...

DALI's smallest budget model has borrowed technology from the more advanced models.
Clean and nuanced reproduction, especially in the midrange. Draws up a nice acoustic scene.
Less effective than the others, so forget about playing loud.
DALI Oberon 1 is the second most expensive model in the test, but you get full value for money in the form of a very nuanced and accurate music reproduction. The sensitivity is the lowest in the test, so forget about playing loud. Oberon 1 is also...

Dali's smallest genuine active speakers DALI Oberon 1 C gives you high quality wireless hi-fi, at a price that is hard to beat.
Well laid out and detailed reproduction, and an impressive deep bass in relation to the size. The price is really good!
The treble can be a bit persistent, and complex music is not the favorite. But it's just a matter of having realistic expectations, right?
Like its wall-mounted twin brother, the Dali Oberon 1 C is one of the cheapest, easiest and most interior-friendly ways to get a good sound in the living room. It is a bit of a business that you can get two active speakers in proper hi-fi quality for...

I bought these speakers over a year ago I have waited until the speakers had done their 100 hours of bedding in. The sound quality is better than I expected from a bookshelf speaker and I am more than pleased with them, they deliver excellent sound...

Purchased a couple of weeks ago and set up a couple of days ago - excellent sound and very helpful staff, especially Stephen in telesales. He talked me through the part of the set up process I was struggling with and as he said ‘I was rocking in minutes'.

I've had my Dali Oberon 1's for a month now. As I continue to wear them in, I am loving them more every day. All the high and mid frequencies sound lush. I wanted to new speakers for better depth of field (I listen to electronic music mostly) as well...
