DALI PHANTOM K60 / K 60 / K-60

The DALI PHANTOM K-60 is the perfect all-around speaker. It is not too big and easy to place, but still big enough to deliver a full and complete audio experience. The K-60 is equipped with a 5,25” wood fibre woofer and designed for optimum in-ceiling use.

This model is the perfect all-around loudspeaker. Its compact size makes it easy to place, but it is still big enough to deliver a full and complete audio experience. Use it for a stereo setup in a kitchen or family room, or to complete a home cinema in a larger room as side or rear loudspeakers.

Best Used in Pairs for Single Stereo (L/R) Zones or as Dolby Atmos Height Channels in CI Home Theaters. 

The PHANTOM K series
The DALI PHANTOM K-60 is designed for optimum in-ceiling use, but will also work if mounted in-wall. It is all about true hi-fi sound, versatility, and flexibility. The compact construction and the easy-to-use compass positioning guide makes it straight forward to place the speaker for the optimum sound experience. Two discreet switches offer audio adjustment options to ensure that the listener gets the most from the speakers, even in rooms that traditionally are difficult.

The tilted woofer and the slightly off-centre soft dome tweeter blend gracefully and produce a richly detailed and crisp soundstage. The polypropylene cone is more resilient towards humidity than the traditional DALI wood fibre cone material, making the PHANTOM K-60 flexible in regards to placement in covered outdoor areas and bathrooms.

Optionally, the PHANTOM K-60 can be fitted with a square front grill.

Back box
The PHANTOM K-60 can be combined with an optional backbox, which protects the speaker against moisture, dust and dirt. It keeps the sound quality consistent (symmetrical loading), even if the acoustic environment behind the walls/ceiling is uneven. With the backbox, you avoid rear sound radiation, reducing acoustic leakage from room to room and from floor to floor. The backbox is not included with the speaker, but can be chosen as an optional accessory.

ADJUSTABLE SOUND

The dome tweeter can be tilted for optimum sound at the listening position, and with integrated voicing options, the sound can be adjusted to fit every situation.

The 28 mm soft dome tweeter module in the PHANTOM E-60 is placed over the woofer in a composite housing mounted on an airplane-wing profile wishbone bracket. The dome tweeter can be physically tilted for optimum sound at the listening position. By mounting the tweeter over the woofer the total foot print of the speaker is keep at a minimum.

The aerodynamic design of the wing and the slightly of centre placement of the tweeter help eliminate the “coaxial colouration” normally associated with coaxial drivers. The positioning also help the mid-range and low frequencies blend gracefully with high frequencies for a precise and natural overall performance even at high sound pressures.

The compass rose on the outer edge help direct the speaker for optimum sound stage.

BETTER BASS

Wood fibre cones and an improved magnet motor system for a better low-end response.

Flexibility was important when designing the PHANTOM K-60, and the ability to use the speaker in areas not fit for traditional DALI speakers was a large part of this. To ensure the best audio reproduction, wood paper fibre was chosen for the cone material.

The woofer is tilted and angled for improved directionality and sound staging. The cone, surround and magnet motor system is designed according to the DALI low-loss principles. This makes the PHANTOM K-60 an easy speaker to drive, and even smaller amplifiers will be able to deliver a high quality audio experience.

UNIQUE GRILLE DESIGN

A fresh and shallow grille design for a new look in a true-white colour to seamlessly integrate with your ceiling. Inspired by the premium S series design and interchangeable with the E series grilles.

The PHANTOM K-60 introduces improvements to the basic design of the front baffle by adding extra thickness to the outer edges for a tighter and more secure fit against the mounting area. This also helps the overall strength and rigidity of the speaker.

The dogleg mounting system makes the install process an easy one step action. Simply insert the PHANTOM K-60 in the prepared mounting area, and from the front of the speaker tighten the dedicated screws to swing out the dogleg brackets and tighten them against the back of the mounting surface. If the mounting surface is extra thick reversing the dogleg makes it possible to expand the mounting grip to 70mm.

The front grilles have been updated to meet the style demands of the install customer. The new sleek design helps the speaker integrate perfectly into the surroundings.

UNIQUE CUSTOM BACK-CAN

The new proprietary retrofittable back-can fits through the speaker mounting hole, making installation, or retrofit extremely easy.

CROSSOVER

Every component in the crossover is carefully selected for their audiophile quality and the crossover in the PHANTOM K-60 is designed especially for this model.

The PHANTOM K-60 includes PTC (Polymeric Positive Temperature Coefficient device) safety function. This safeguards the driver components from overheating if played at very loud volumes over a long period. Install speakers are often played to fill more than just the room they are mounted in, so If the listener is in another room the volume can accidently be turned up to extremely high levels, and therefore permanently damage the speakers. The PTC system will prevent this for happening, since it acts like a fuse if the current get to high.

All internal wiring is optimized for the speaker design and is placed and secured to eliminate the possibility of rattling. The terminals are placed directly on the crossover for the shortest possible signal path, and the spring loaded grip ensures the best possible long lasting connection to the speaker wire.

WIDE DISPERSION

All DALI speakers are designed around the principle of wide dispersion. This entails an off-axis optimisation of the audio reproduction. The off-axis optimisation helps deliver the music or movie audio to the larges possible part of the room. This technology is perfect for use with install speakers, since they are always mounted flush against either a wall or a ceiling. Working with the off-axis optimisation ensures that the listener will have a large sweet spot there the soundstage is perfect, but also that the sound received when away from the sweet spot is still of a very high quality.

The PHANTOM K-60 has two audio settings that can be used to adjust the performance of the speaker. Focus/Distribute: This toggle enables the tweeter module to disperse the high frequencies better. If the normal listing position is close to the speaker, no more than 25 degrees off-axis, the Focus setting should be used for the best possible experience. If, on the other hand, the normal listing position is beyond 25 degrees off-axis, the Distribute setting can be engaged to help the tweeter disperse the high frequency father. This will improve the audio experience at odd angles in the room.

Normal/HF Tilt: When placing two speakers at a great distance from each other, creating a good soundstage can be difficult to achieve. To improve the audio experience under these conditions, DALI has included the possibility to add an extra 3dB to the high frequency output, to enable the sound to travel further. In many cases, this will help deliver a better soundstage even under extreme conditions.
