Full Description

“Speed, agility, balance – this trio of physical facets doesn’t just apply to the sporting world, but the speaker world too. Dali’s Rubicon 2s tick all these boxes, and then some”…”The Dali Rubicon 2s are quite the standmounter. They’re an expressive and enthusiastic listen with little to fault. If you hadn’t guessed, we’re big fans.”

The DALI Rubicon range sets a new benchmark for affordable audiophile sound quality reproduction. The perfect blend of beautiful design and sound engineering expertise. True music lovers want their music to come alive, DALI have experimented with new and old technologies to product a range of speaker that can transport listeners back to the venue or studio at the moment their music of choice were originally recorded.

The Rubicon 2 bookshelf speakers might be the smallest member of the Rubicon family, but delivering richly defined detail and big bass response its sound belies its size. With the solid MDF cabinet, the Rubicon 2 has a perfect working environment for its ultra light 29mm soft dome tweeter, 6.5 inch wood fibre low loss driver, and gold-plated terminals.

Rubicon 2 comes complete with rubber feet to hold it firmly in position and, to help keep it at its aesthetic as well as acoustic best. Do not let the small footprint of this model fool you, it is a performance powerhouse. It is rich on detail with an impressive soundstage and has surprisingly large bass reproduction with both precision and timing. The Rubicon range of loudspeakers are available in four finishes. High gloss black, high gloss white, rosso and walnut.

Low Loss Technology

The cone used in the Rubicon series draws upon the heritage from the Epicon technologies, and has a light, rigid and randomly uneven structure. This lower the complexity of the central part of the motor, ensures even piston like movements, reduces the possibility of surface resonance greatly and creates an extremely low distortion within the Rubicon series. The soft low-loss rubber surround is designed and bespoke specifically for the Rubicon series, and all of the components are situated in an aluminium chassis designed for maximum airflow around the cone and magnet system.

SMC Magnet

All variants in the Rubicon series feature woofers with the 6.5-inch wood-fibre cones and the DALI SMC (soft magnetic compound) magnet motor system which reduces distortion as never heard before. The secret is the individually coated magnet granules that make it possible to mould a a strong magnet that’s not electrically conductive. The unique SMC magnet system and a reworked version of DALI’s hybrid tweeter module work together, along with individual bass ports for each woofer, to produce audio exactly as the recording artist originally imagined it.

Tweeters

The Rubicon series makes use of both the soft dome tweeter working alone, and the hybrid tweeter configuration an amazing rendering of the high frequencies. The voice coil used in the Rubicon series is designed to be very light and agile in order to achieve a broader bandwidth. This lighter voice coil is placed inside a powerful ferrite magnet that keeps a tight control of its movements. The ribbon tweeter is the master of wide dispersion and combining it with the soft dome, the tweeter module starts working as low as 2.5 KHz. This extreme bandwidth combined with the ultra wide dispersion is an important part of the DALI sound philosophy.
