DALI ALTECO C-1 100 Watt 2.0 Channel Speaker with Dolby Atmos (Black)

• The DALI ALTECO C-1 is truly a multi-purpose speaker. The perfect fit for adding height information to a surround setup or taking the role as an out-of-the-way stereo speaker. By designing the crossover for stereo use and by keeping a strict focus on DALI sound design principles, DALI have created a speaker that delivers believable height information from Atmos, DTS-X and Auro-3D movies..
• DUAL SOUND MODE: The unique angular design combined with the dual sound mode enables this speaker to be used in a multitude of different scenarios. Choose 'UP' on the front baffle switch to beam the sound waves either straight out for a soft downwards angle, or by selecting 'DOWN', beaming the sound almost straight down for close position listening..
• UP-FIRING: The angular design of this speaker makes it perfect for up-firing use. Combined with a surround receiver that has the ability to render height information (Dolby Atmos, DTS-X or Auro-3D), placing it on top of the front speakers, and even on top of the rear speakers will offer an excellent ceiling reflected rendering of height information in compatible movies and concerts..
• Build around a 4.5” low loss wood fibre woofer and a 21mm ultra-light soft dome tweeter, the ALTECO C-1 brings all of the DALI sound principles to your living room in a unique new design. The wood fibre cones are a DALI trademark, as well as a proven DALI technology. Combining the well-behaving wood fibre cone with the low-loss rubber surround and spider suspension results in the reproduction of even the smallest micro-detail in the signal – unfiltered and with high accuracy..
• According to On Magazine, it is obvious “that despite their entry-level price, the ALTECO C-1 are not designed frugally or in a hurry.” Furthermore, they find that the speakers "are capable of very good precision and clean sound. They excel at building a well-focused sound image and that is exactly what is expected for 3D audio effects.” In their view “the height effects of the Dolby Atmos and DTS:X soundtracks are quite convincing.”.

Ideal for Dolby Atmos, DTS-X and Auro 3D, the DALI ALTECO C1 brings the full sound of the cinema to your home.
