DALI MENUET
It is with great pleasure that we introduce the DALI MENUET - a small, yet powerful speaker that reveals great musicality that will set new standards for sound and performance from a compact speaker.
Conceptually, DALI MENUET is a compact bass reflex loudspeaker measuring only 25 x 15 x 23 cm/9.8 x 5.9 x 9.0”. Even though it is only based on a 4.5” woofer and a 28 mm/1.1” soft dome it more than makes the grade. Listen to these brilliant tiny loudspeakers and you will hear plenty of clean, undistorted bass, open and dynamic midrange and detailed/crisp highs.
For optimum performance, DALI MENUET should be positioned in a bookshelf or mounted on the wall using an optional wall bracket. With two threaded inserts on the rear of the cabinet, it is prepared for easy installation of the wall bracket without any hassle. The bracket is designed to ensure optimal clearance between the wall and the bass reflex port.
The neat and clean design - makes it very easy to place the tiny DALI MENUET anywhere around the house. Alternatively, combine them with other speakers in the acclaimed RUBICON series for a high-performance stereo set-up or home cinema system. Either way, you’re in for an experience.
MENUET FEATURES
WOOD FIBRE CONES
Our low-loss drivers uses a mix of low-mass paper cones with wood fibre reinforcement. The embedded wood fibres give the surface an uneven structure, which dramatically minimizes the resonance of the surface. This creates the best possible reproduction of every detail in the audio signal. The low loss woofer is fitted with an extra-strong magnet system enabling the woofer to create a huge sound performance.
The 4.5” woofer is airflow optimized to achieve the best possible coupling between the wood fiber cone and the real wood veneer cabinet. Even the woofer cut-out in the cabinet is made larger than normal to optimise openness and dynamic response. The oversized 28 mm/1.1” soft dome tweeter is able to start and stop with great speed and precision due to the very low mass of the dome assembly and a powerful motor system (the dome is approximately 30% lighter than comparable standard domes and the magnet in the motor system is made of the strongest neodymium material available). The DALI designed drivers, sturdy binding posts and high quality crossover is the key to achieving extraordinary performance from such a compact loudspeaker.
DOME TWEETER
In spite of the compact size, the DALI MENUET is produced with an oversized dome tweeter creating a perfect fusion with the woofer.
INTEGRATED BASS PORT
With the bass port integrated in the terminal tray, the DALI MENUET provides the brilliant option for an on-wall- or near wall placement.
CABINET DESIGN
The compact cabinet construction of the DALI MENUET optimizes the volume of the cabinet, and the round shapes creates the perfect finish.
