Product Description

Making sense! That's what ZENSOR 1 is up to, packing as much legacy and music as possible into a slim and compact cabinet that you can carry home under your arm. The versatile ZENSOR 1 is ideal as all-round stereo loudspeaker preferably in small to medium sized rooms. It even works excellently as front speaker in a 2.1 surround set-up or as back speaker in 5.1 systems including subwoofer, as the distinguished and discreet sound resource it is. Distinguished by it well-known DALI signatures such as the light and yet stiff wood fibre cones delivering a highly dynamic, detailed, and undisturbed sound reproduction, while ultra-low mass dome tweeter material ensures a widely extended frequency range. Discreet by its dimensions (H: 27.4 x W: 16.2 x D: 22 cm), 6-litre cabinet, and its design dressed in high-gloss lacquer finish that blends perfectly into a modern day interior. The soundproof design ideas of DALI provide the background for ZENSOR 1, created in respect and admiration of music. From the overall and basic properties to any detail such as the integrated wall bracket, rounded edges, and rear-mounted bass reflex port. ZENSOR 1 simply succeeds in converting amplifier power into pure acoustical energy without loss or limitations, and it will give pleasure to your ears and eyes over and over with focused, coherent sound and a stylish, visual identity.

DALI - ZENSOR 1 - Bookshelf Speaker in Light Walnut Review

Room is a largish living room (20X17 Feet); Electronics- Denon AVR 1312 and Sony BDP S-380.
Dspeaker Antimode Cinema(to room equalize the Sub only)- Sub - Polk PSW 110, Source CD's and Mode:Stereo only.

1. Exteriors

Very smart looking little speaker. Classic finish and no nonsense approach to quality. Excellent connectors for incoming signal. I keep the grill on - very clean front. "Designed and Engineered in Denmark" stamped neatly at the back. The walnut finish has a luxurious, rich look. The correct lighting is important for the Walnut finish to look it's best.

2. Sound

Positioning is Key ; Ensure that you can barely see the top of the speaker(a tip I picked up from the Dali website)to get the tweeter axis just slightly beneath ear level. Rear ported so need to be well away from the wall and corners if possible. On the other hand near wall positioning increases the bass dramatically as it has a rear firing port. Move them around a bit and sound changes so experiment. Toe-in is not recomended.

High's - Natural and lush, no indication of harshness or fatigue.

Mid's - Full bodied, abundant and pleasing. Sounded a touch bright in the showroom but I must say it sounds lovely in my living room.

Bass - I use a Sub but I did listen to them without the sub for sometime and the bass has refinement, speed and poise. I would go so far as to say that I question the need for my sub although there is no doubt that the sound is totally different when the sub is used and I prefer it that way. I crossover to the sub at 90HZ and I use a sub EQ - you may not want to crossover that high. It's a question of the type of music you listen to and personal preferences.

3. Very very strongly recommend this Speaker (Audiophile grade Stereo) as the best one at this price point( and I've auditioned quite a few in the BShelf category from B&W 686, 685, Wharfdale 10.1 ,KEF Q 300, Polk RTI's and Focal 706V); The B&W's are good but way overpriced when compared to the quality the Dali's give you. The KEF Q 300 and the Tannoy Mercury V1 are great speakers to check out as well.

4. Although you don't require much power to drive these beauties - I am sure a heavy duty amplifier will do the maximum justice.
