DALI

Thanks to this, the DALI IO-12 headphones, equipped with proprietary 50mm paper fiber diffusers, dramatically reduce nonlinear harmonic distortion. According to DALI, "by applying SMC to IO-12, we have essentially achieved an electrostatic purity level of midrange frequencies."

Structurally, the Dali iO-6 are classic dynamic headphones with a powerful neodymium magnetic system installed in the drivers. It drives a 50mm diaphragm made of cellulose, a solution not found today in headphones of this class and design.

The IO-8's acoustic architecture is largely borrowed from the company's flagship headphones, the Dali IO–12. The 50mm drivers are made of paper and wood fibers of different lengths, which, according to Dali, creates a lightweight but rigid diaphragm with optimal damping. The result is a "natural, relaxed sound quality filled with detail." The claimed frequency response is 10 Hz–43 kHz.
