Hello everyone,
How many of you have had the pleasure of hearing DALI speakers go?
Any if so what is your opinion? I recently spent some time with a pair and I gotta admit, they are pretty fantastic sounding speakers. Love the grill choice color but not the installation, still using pins. I don't like the Tweeter surrounding esthetic. BUT sound quality, they are pretty remarkable.

    I heard a pair of floorstanders for a few hours and they were nice speakers but very neutral. I could live with them but they didn’t pull me into the music as much as I was hoping.

    I was able to demo the Dali KORE Flagship for several hours. They were having a demo day. Excellent speaker great sound and imaging but a little pricy.
