DALI - How's this brand ? Model DALI blue 6006. Any thoughts ?

[Jimmy C]

Hi Guys,
Anybody out here has first hand experience with DALI loudspeakers ? The specific model is DALI 6006 blue series. How do these compare with B&W,DYNAUDIO, PROAC etc... Has anybody extensively listened to these models ? All the models seem to have more than 90 db sensitivity which makes it very amp friendly....

...I have only heard the Helicon 400... well, I can't be sure that is all HE has heard from the company, but that's all I demoed.

And again, like Pat, I felt they were smooth and open. This was not a GREAT store set-up, and it was played too loud, but, along with the Josephs, were the best (IMO) of the five in that general price range. I felt these two brands beat up the lower Spendors and the Legacys.

Sorry, I have zero experience with the exact model you're looking at, but I feel Dali would be worth a second look. The finish was gorgeous to boot. It would be hard to demo a relatively large speaker at home, but I would be willing to bet the results (of any speaker) would be better than that of most stores.

I hope my incessant rambling helps a bit... tell us what you end up with!

As one jc to another I have to agree with Jimmy C's comments about the finish of these cabinets. They were to most beautifully finished of any brand I've ever seen. I wasn't really motivated to actually listen to them today, but they really did look good.
