PRODUCT DETAILS
As part of our wireless CALLISTO eco system, the stand mount CALLISTO 2 C represents the virtues of traditional Hi-Fi merged with the convenience of wireless audio. Designed to deliver on DALI’s promise of producing the most natural and faithful reproduction possible.
The CALLISTO 2 C is perfect for smaller spaces or rooms where the speakers need to remain discreet, but where power and presence are still paramount. The combination of a 6½-inch low-loss wood fibre woofer, a hybrid tweeter module and the perfectly balanced internal cabinet volume results in a supremely accurate and powerful audio experience.
The CALLISTO 2 C connects wirelessly to the DALI Sound Hub through an extremely stable digital connection. With latency below 25 ms, sync between video and audio from a movie or TV source is obtained well within conventionally acceptable limits.
Everything from the drivers to the amplifier is developed in-house, which is why we can optimise every single component to match each other perfectly. This enables us to design the woofers to be more linear than would be possible in a similar traditional passive speaker system.
MQA Certified
The DALI CALLISTO speakers are MQA Certified. By adding the DALI BluOS NPM-1 module to your system, you can now take advantage of the ever-growing catalogue of studio master recordings that have been encoded into MQA and streamed on services like Tidal.
CABINET
At our large woodworking facility in Denmark, we precision-cut the CALLISTO 2 C MDF cabinets ourselves to maintain the high quality, followed by applying the vinyl.
The CALLISTO 2 C cabinet is constructed from 25mm solid MDF, which employ a very rigid construction with robust bracings across the inside of the cabinet for extra reinforcement. This contributes to a stiffness and density that practically eliminates resonance within the cabinet. At the same time great care is taken not to reduce the internal volume of the cabinet unnecessarily.
The mounting of the drivers and the final tests and approvals on each and every speaker is also handled directly at our own assembly lines in our Danish factory.
Through strict in-house control of every aspect of production, CALLISTO achieves a level of fit and finish typically found only in products well beyond its price point.
OVERVIEW
The CALLISTO 2 C is the stand mount solution in our new wireless ecosystem that empowers you to easily access all your Hi-Res music directly from your smart device. Connect via Bluetooth (AAC/AptX HD) or the optional BluOS module (Wi-Fi). The CALLISTO 2 C is the perfect choice for smaller rooms without giving up performance. The combination of our 6 ½" low-loss wood fibre woofer, hybrid tweeter module and the perfectly balanced internal cabinet volume form the base of a highly accurate audio experience.
